About this ebook

The Acadians are descendants of the French settlers who established the first permanent white settlement in North America on Ile Ste. Croix, in the Bay of Fundy, in 1604. During the following century and a half, while their mother country France waged war with England, and the new land of Acadia changed hands between them ten times, the Acadians continued to clear the forests and reclaim fertile land from the sea. In 1755, under British rule, they were brutally removed from their rich farmlands and scattered to various parts of the world. After the end of the Seven Years War in 1763, some Acadians returned to live under British rule and some remained in other lands. Their descendants, whether they live on the land that was once Acadia or in exile, still consider themselves Acadian because their mothers and grandmothers kept the dream alive.

Cassie Deveaux Cohoon

Cassie Deveaux Cohoon was born in the Acadian village of Chéticamp on the northern side of Cape Breton Island, in Nova Scotia. Her Acadian heritage goes back to the early days of Grand Pré on her father’s side and Beaubassin (now Amherst), on her mother’s. As many of her generation, she grew up with the idea that she would be ‘leaving home’ to make a life elsewhere. She has lived in New York City and Paris, France, and now makes her home in Montreal. She has worked as a freelance journalist and has written family histories.
