All Cajuns are related!

This site is devoted to every aspect of Acadian/Cajun history and genealogy.

If you enter this site from another website and the Table of Contents in the frame to the left does not appear, go to www.acadiansingray.com directly, and the Contents frame should appear.

Here's a trick Cousin Anna shared with me about searching for names on the pages of this website.  No matter which browser you use--Explorer, Firefox, Safari, Chrome--just hit Ctrl-F on your keyboard, and a window will appear at the top of the page, allowing you to search for whatever you desire within that page.

Please note that there is nothing for sale here, nor any kind of advertisement, nor will there ever be.  Feel free to copy anything, in any quantity, from this website if it aids in the search for your ancestors.  All I ask is that you attribute what you use here to me. 
Enjoy.

After decades of effort, I have decided to publish some of the work found on this website--Books One, Two, Four, Five, Seven, and Eight of "The Acadians of Louisiana:  A Synthesis," which I will call The Acadians of Louisiana:  A History.  But first I need to find a publisher willing to handle such an endeavor.  Any ideas?
