According to Bill Barry in his Dictionary of Saskatchewan Place Names , this post office village was named in 1911 after Fr. Maurice Mourey, parish priest at Ste Anne de Carlton. The village began in the 1880s.
The post office was renamed in 1912 and lasted until 1967. It might surprise you that there were over 30 Canadian towns who applied to change their name to Titanic , but Mourey was the first and earned the distinct name!There are other towns in North America renamed Titanic in honour of the sinking of the unsinkable White Star liner in April 14, 1922.
