Answer 1

Phase 1: French settlers left the Vendee Region of France to settle in Acadie (Nova Scotia) – 1604. The Grand Derangement or expulsion of the Acadians occurred in 1755).

Phase 2: Beginning in 1755, Acadian families were separated and shipped to various destinations including seven British American colonies (Connecticut, New York, Pennsylvania, Maryland, Massachusetts, South Carolina, Georgia), the French Caribbean (Antilles, Martinique, St. Domingue), Canadian territories (Quebec, New Brunswick, Prince Edward Island, Nova Scotia), England, and France (also, the Falkland Islands and French Guiana).

Phase 3: The first Acadian refugees arrived in New Orleans from New York – 1764. The next small group of Acadians arrived from the West Indies and Maryland – 1765. Acadians began arriving in Louisiana in larger numbers from the British American colonies (i.e., Maryland and Pennsylvania) the Antilles (Caribbean), and Nova Scotia – 1763-1767. Acadians arrived in Louisiana from France – 1785-90.

Phase 4: (requires a basic outline map of Louisiana). Have students locate the initial settlements of the Acadians in Louisiana. Note that the Spanish Louisiana government provided provisions and land grants for settlement in specific areas of the state. After plotting the specified locations, ask students why the Spanish officials would have placed the Acadian settlers in these locations (e.g., occupy wilderness and territorial perimeters by developing the land, serving as a military buffer, and validate unsettled territorial claims with settlers).
