Marche, Arkansas

Marche (sometimes also called Warren)[1] is an unincorporated community in Pulaski County, Arkansas, United States.

Marche traces its roots back to an attempt by Judge Liberty Bartlett to establish a settlement in 1872.

By fall of 1878, the new community had attracted the attention of the Holy Ghost Fathers, a congregation of Roman Catholic priests and brothers.

Father Anthony Jaworski built a small chapel named for the Immaculate Heart of Mary on a hill that the immigrants called Jasna Góra after the important pilgrimage site in Częstochowa.

[2] Though the expansion of a federal camp in World War II required forty families to relocate, the community continued to expand.
