Britain eventually moderated its policies and allowed Acadians to return to Nova Scotia. However most of the fertile former Acadian lands were now occupied by British colonists.

By 1755, the descendants of Daniel and Francoise LeBlanc had created the largest family in Acadia. Le Grand Dérangement (The Great Expulsion) of the 1750s scattered this huge family to the winds. Since most of the LeBlancs lived in the Minas settlements, dozens of them fell into the hands of the British in the fall of 1755 and ended up on ships bound for Maryland, Virginia, and other English colonies down the Atlantic seaboard.[7] Many LeBlancs were exiled to France and then about 1785, along with Acadian families carrying other surnames, left aboard ships for then Spanish Louisiana; some of these LeBlancs gave testimony in France to a Catholic Priest who carefully recorded their oral testimony of who their ancestors were (since the Catholic and Civil records were unavailable, destroyed, or lost due to their mistreatment by the British authorities). LeBlancs were among the first families of Acadia and some of the earliest Acadians to find refuge in Louisiana. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daniel_LeBlanc_(settler)

French claim Acadia - 1604

Acadian Civil War (1635-1654)

fought between competing governors. Governor Charles de Saint-Étienne de la Tour (a Protestant) had been granted one area of territory by King Louis XIV, and Charles de Menou d'Aulnay (a Catholic) had been granted another area. The divisions made by the king were geographically uninformed, and the two territories and their administrative centres overlapped. The conflict was intensified by personal animosity between the two governors, and came to an end when d'Aulnay successfully expelled la Tour from his holdings. D'Aulnay's success was effectively overturned after his death when la Tour married D'Aulnay's widow in 1653 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acadian_Civil_War

  • Pope - by 1643 - Southern England
  • Richard - bef. 1652 - from France (1652, Michel & Andre (mother/step-mother left in France? died before they left?))

    • Bosse/Bassie - Normandy France (before 1662)

Siege of Port Royal - 1710

Port Royal conquered by England as part of Queen Anne's War - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Siege_of_Port_Royal_(1710)

Deportation of the Acadians - 1755, 1758

Between six and seven thousand Acadians were expelled from Nova Scotia[38] to the lower British American colonies.[39][40] Some Acadians eluded capture by fleeing deep into the wilderness or into French-controlled Canada. The Quebec town of L'Acadie (now a sector of Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu) was founded by expelled Acadians

After the Siege of Louisbourg (1758), a second wave of the expulsion began.

After 1764, many exiled Acadians finally settled in Louisiana, which had been transferred by France to Spain at the end of the French and Indian War. The demonym Acadian developed into Cajun, which was first used as a pejorative term until its later mainstream acceptance.

Britain eventually moderated its policies and allowed Acadians to return to Nova Scotia. However most of the fertile former Acadian lands were now occupied by British colonists. The returning Acadians settled instead in more outlying areas of the original Acadia, such as Cape Breton and the areas which are now New Brunswick and Prince Edward Island.


By 1755, the descendants of Daniel and Francoise LeBlanc had created the largest family in Acadia. Le Grand Dérangement (The Great Expulsion) of the 1750s scattered this huge family to the winds. Since most of the LeBlancs lived in the Minas settlements, dozens of them fell into the hands of the British in the fall of 1755 and ended up on ships bound for Maryland, Virginia, and other English colonies down the Atlantic seaboard. Many LeBlancs were exiled to France and then about 1785, along with Acadian families carrying other surnames, left aboard ships for then Spanish Louisiana; some of these LeBlancs gave testimony in France to a Catholic Priest who carefully recorded their oral testimony of who their ancestors were (since the Catholic and Civil records were unavailable, destroyed, or lost due to their mistreatment by the British authorities). LeBlancs were among the first families of Acadia and some of the earliest Acadians to find refuge in Louisiana. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daniel_LeBlanc_(settler)


Rene Richard 1688 (Rene, Michel, Andre) was born 1688 in Port Royal, Acadia, and died December 26, 1776 in Quebec, Canada.

He married Marguerite Theriot daughter of Claude Terriot and Marie Gautrot on January 12, 1711/12 in Port Royal, Acadia. Witness: Rene Richard, Marguerite Terriot, Michel Richard, Pierre Lanque Acadian Church Records Volume III Port Royal 1702-1721 Register of Baptism, Marriages and Deaths of the parish of St. Jean Baptiste of Port Royal beginning in the month of Sept 1702.

Rene and Marguerite were deported to Massachusetts in 1755, and rejoined other members of the family in Quebec after 1766. Later they came to Becancour, QC.

Rene escaped deportation (?) and finally reached Becancour, where he died in 1776.
