| Acadian Memorial |
Located in downtown St. Martinville, LA, on
the banks of the Bayou Teche, down the street from the famous Evangeline
Oak, the Acadian Memorial is both a museum & a research
center. The Robert Dafford Mural is the highlight of the museum on
the first floor. Also important is the bronze Wall of Names at the
opposite end of the main-floor museum that contains the name of nearly
every Acadian who found refuge in LA from 1764-1813. Upstairs is
the research center where visitors can trace their Acadian ancestry in
the Memorial's extensive database. The Memorial's website is <acadianmemorial.org>.
A new feature of the website is its Ensemble Encore, which includes two
superb essays by Dr. Carl A. Brasseaux at <acadianmemorial.org/english/ensembleencoreset.html> |

Stephen White has included on the website for the Acadian Studies
Center at the University of Moncton in New Brunswick family genealogies
that will appear in the next installment of his magisterial Dictionnaire
Généalogique des
Familles Acadiennes. Although these families were the ones who stayed
in Canada, their genealogies can still be useful for tracing Louisiana
lineages. |

White, Stephen A. Dictionnaire Généalogique des

Moncton, NB: Centre d'Études Acadiennes, 1999. This is now the
standard genealogy of the Acadian people. As the title reveals, like
Arsenault's genealogy, it is in French, but it is easy to follow.
Like anything from the hand of Stephen A. White, it is a most reliable
source based on solid scholarship & exhaustive research. DGFA-2,
still in production, will cover Acadian marriages from 1715-80.
Corrections to DGFA-1 can be found on the website for the Centre
d'Études Acadiennes. |
