They were the French settlers in Nova Scotia. The French called it Acadia after the Indian name for the area. It went back and forth between the British and french throughout the 17th and early 18th centuries. The British gained final control in 1713. In 1755, with war with France looming the British became concerned about the loyalty of the French population and deported many of them. Several thousand of them settled in Louisiana, which was then French territory. Over time after Louisiana became American the word Acadian was corrupted to Cajun which is how their descendants, including me, are known to this day.Michael Montagne french settlers The Acadians were the first Europeans (besides the Vikings) to land in the Maritime provinces.
