About Sébastien Rale

  • Sébastien Rale (also Racle, Râle, Rasle, Rasles and Sebastian Rale (January 20, 1657 – August 23, 1724)) was a Jesuit missionary and lexicographer who worked among the eastern Abenaki people while stationed on the border of Acadia and New England.
  • Father Rale always supported those elements in the tribe which maintained an active resistance to the English; the increasing English settlement in the Kennebec area was a threat to the Abenakis.
  • Rale was killed by the Colonists during Father Rale's War.
