Francois, Newfoundland and Labrador

Common card · No. 498316

Francois ( fran-SWAY) is a local service district and designated place in the Canadian province of Newfoundland and Labrador. It is located on the southern coast of Newfoundland on Francois Bay at the end of a small fjord. Although there is no longer a general store, there is a post office and a small museum, accessed by concrete pathways and boardwalks. Most residents pronounce the name "Fran-sway", and its proper spelling is without the cedilla found in the French word françois. Francois is inaccessible by road and may be reached only by air or sea.
