Rogersville (originally Rogerville)[2] is a geographic parish in Northumberland County, New Brunswick, Canada.[5]

For governance purposes it is divided between the village of Nouvelle-Arcadie[6] and the Greater Miramichi rural district,[7] which are members of the Kent Regional Service Commission and Greater Miramichi RSC respectively.[8]

Prior to the 2023 governance reform, the parish was divided between the village of Rogersville[9] and the local service districts of Collette and the parish of Rogersville.[10] Rogersville and Collette became part of Nouvelle-Arcadie while the parish LSD was split between the new village and the rural district.
