Port of Belle Isle

Our ancestors were strong on oral tradition. From generation to generation, Acadians and French-Canadians traced back the threads of their origins. Perhaps the way the world has changed and how splintered families are today is what calls us with such a great interest to research our family roots.. our family genealogies.

There are not many family threads handed down nowadays. We must search for them. However, it must be said that even today, in Nova Scotia and New Brunswick when meeting an Acadian, if you ask who that person descends from they will orally give you the direct line back to their first ancestors. Oral tradition is still maintained among some Acadian descendants.

Acadia, the first French colony in North America was located at the eastern corner of Canada. The first French colonists (120 volunteers) arrived in Acadia in 1604 with Champlain. They were mainly soldiers and craftsmen. Others arrived in 1606 and were for the most part farmers. These were the pioneers who founded Port-Royal, now Annapolis Royal, in Nova Scotia.

In 1620, England seized Acadia and all of Canada for the first time. These lands were later returned to France by the Treaties of Suze and of Saint-Germain-en-Laye in 1632. It was at this time that the French decided to settle 300 pioneers in Acadia. This group was under the leadership of Isaac de Razilly, who came from Auray in Brittany (Bretagne). Cousin of Cardinal Richelieu, he was nominated governor of Acadia. Charles de Menou de Charnisay, sire d’Aulnay, accompanied him on this journey. The first families arriving in successive waves, were recruited in the provinces of West of France. This began in 1636.

Port-Royal was taken by the English during the war which took place from 1654 to 1667. At the end of the hostilities, Acadia was given back to France by the Treaty of Breda.

Belle Ile-en-Mer

Louix XV was looking for farmers to populate Belle-Ile-en-Mer which had been partially destroyed by English occupation. When they arrived in Belle-Ile-en-Mer in September and October 1765, the 78 Acadian families were settled in the seigneuries' warehouses (355 people). There, they awaited the designation of land in the villages. This took place after the division of noble lands were exchanged for a fee - (feudal system).

They started to settle about April 1766 and each family received only about 30 measures of land - a farmer could plow this land in only one day. They were also provided with a dwelling place, stables, animals as well as farming utensils. This was intended to equalize them with the other Belle-Ile colonists. This was a difficult period for the people of Belle Ile who had just been subjected to the invasion of the English and were now asked to be tolerant and to make efforts live alongside these newcomers, as well as for the Acadians who had to adapt themselves to a new life and a new language.

During the troubled period of the Great Deportation, the baptism, marriage and death registers held by the missionaries were sometimes destroyed. When the Acadians arrived, they were asked to reconstitute their genealogie. These have become known as the Declarations of Belle-Ile-en-Mer. Some of these declarations contained obvious errors but for the most part, they were the accounts of the Acadians from the time of the arrival of the first colonists in Acadia, through the Deportation ordeal up to their coming to Belle-Ile. These accountings were witnessed by other Acadians and are today precious research tools in finding some of our ancestors who were sent to Belle-Ile.
