Below is a recap of the stories written about Acadians in this blog so far. This list includes some early posts that may not have been well researched but I am reviewing them for accuracy and hope they will "make the cut"!

I remember a comment that the St Marguerite Cemetery in L'Acadie, St Jean had been cleared of all grave stones every so many years to make room for more burials. I guess I cannot see my relatives stones from the 1700-1850s
ReplyDeleteNot certain about that as L'Acadie St Marguerite de Blairfindie only began in 1784. Also I was told that often there were no stones in 18th century Quebec..it just wasn't their tradition and carving headstones came later. However, I can't validate that!
