1755 A power-hungry English governor disrupts the pact with the Acadians. He orders them to swear allegiance to the crown of England. The Acadian people refuse his demand and reaffirm their desire to remain as neutrals. The governor retaliates against the Acadians, confiscating their lands and ordering them into exile. Some return to Europe, others move to French-speaking parts of Canada and still others seek haven in the English colonies to the south. 1604 - 1713 - 1755 - 1785 - 1847 - 1901 - 1921 - 1928 - 1968 - 1974 our menu - entertainment - gift shop - functions - group tours - cajun central - locations - home ©1999 Mulates.
