Clairville is a community in Weldford Parish, New Brunswick, located 5.34 km NE of Coal Branch, on the road to Jailletville on Route 465. It was once called Hawk Ridge or New Lorne Settlement and some claim it was renamed Clairville for an early settler, Clairville Price who was a Post Master there 1905–1958, however, others believe it may have been named for the McLeary family who originally came from Scotland and settled in that location.
