M. BONA ARSENAULT
Histoire et Genealogie des Acadiens Tome 6"

Le Grand Derangement de 1755 dix-septieme siecle au Nouveau Monde
est riche en peripeties de toutes sortes.
Il fallait un coeur vaillant et solide et du courage a revendre
pour survivre durant ces annees de transition de la France a l'Angleterre

Le roi de France LOUIS XV possedait une petite ile personelle
BELLE-ILE-EN-MER
au large de la cote de la Bretagne, qui comptait quatre paroisses:
Le Palais,
Locmaria
Bangor
Sauzon

A la fin des hostilites de 1759, lorsqu'on devisait le Traite d'Utrecht de 1763, on se preparait a re-orienter les prisonniers (Bordeaux, Morlaix, Poitou, etc) et les gens de Belle-ile-en-mer, eux, estimerent pouvoir accueuillir 78 familles venues de la Grande Deportation Acadienne

Des 11,000 personnes que les Anglais avaient tente de deporter
des cotes de La Nouvelle-France, ils ne reussirent qu'a en prendre 7,000.

Au-dessus de 3,000 personnes s'echapperent;
les Anglais emmenerent ces 7,000, hommes, femmes, enfants,
souvent separes les uns des autres pour la vie,
(faits d'ou fut inspire le roman d'Evangeline)
disperses les uns en Louisiane ou dans une variete d'etats des Etats Unis (souvent les Gouverneurs de ces Etats n'avaient eu aucun preavis...!)
et les autres aux Antilles, ou dans les prisons de Falmouth, Liverpool ou Southampton en Angleterre.

Comme mentionne plus haut, si nous possedons cette liste, c'est bien a cause de l'ouvrage attentif de M. Rene Daligaut, de Palais, Belle-ile-en-mer, telle qu'elle fut imprimee dans Histoire et Genealogie des Acadiens, Tome 6 par Bona Arsenault, Lemeac, 1978

Belle-Ile-en-Mer, situee au large de la Bretagne, en France
etait la propriete personelle de

LOUIS XV
puis en 1766, l'ile fut divisee entre les habitants,
incluant les familles Acadiennes qui avaient ete acceptees par l'ile.
Il y avait eu, originellement 78 de ces familles acadiennes.

55 familles acadiennes faisait parties du groupe qu'on avait refuse en Virginie en 1755 et qui consequemment avait passe plusieurs annees dans les prisons de Falmouth et Liverpool entre 1756 et 1763, puis avaient ete des refugies dans differents camps en France, Bordeaux, Morlaix et autres.

22 familles acadiennes avaient passe ces memes annees dan la prison de Southhampton, avant d'avoir pu se refugier a St-Malo

La derniere famille acadienne venait de Boulogne-sur-mer.

Les quatre paroisses de Belle-Ile-en-Mer devinrent des Communes en 1789, quand vint la Revolution francaise.
C'etait: Palais, Locmaria, Bangor et Sauzon

Plus tard, plusieurs allerent ailleurs: Lorient, Auray, Vannes, Quimper, Concarneau, et autres places en France, puis en 1785, permission leur fit donnee d'aller en Louisiane, qui etait devenue la destination, le point de ralliement, dans ces annees ou les communications etaient pour le moins primitives, et ou il etait diffice de se rejoindre, si l'un etait deracine sans preavis.

La Nouvelle-Orleans etait maintenant le coeur ou les Acadiens avaient une chance de se retrouver.
Un strategeme utilise par des petits groupes de familles dispersees fut de recenser leurs familles dans leurs nouvelles regions et d'envoyer un emissaire avec ces informations a la Nouvelle-Orleans pour etre integrees et amalgamees a une banque d'informations.
Ca faisait de la Louisiane un endroit desirable
et lorsque permission leur fit donnee d'y aller
plusieurs de Belle-ile-en-mer s'en prevalurent aussi
