MS. in Archives Coloniales, Paris; pressmark, “Amérique, serie B, Canada, vol. 76, fol. 100.”] 1 From 1723–49, the minister of the marine (which included the bureau of the colonies), was Jean Freédeéric Phelypeaux, Comte de Maurepas.— Ed. Versailles , May 31, 1743. Monsieur —The report you made me in 1741 respecting what had passed between the Scioux and Renard Savages2 having led me to suspect that both would seek to join together, I wrote you in my despatch of April 20th of last year to neglect nothing to prevent so dangerous a union. Such suspicions are only too fully justified. In fact I see by a letter from Monsieur de Bienville,3 dated February 4th last, that the Sieur de Bertet, major commanding at Illinois4 has informed him that the voyageurs who had arrived from Canada the previous autumn had reported to him that the Scioux, not content with having broken the peace they themselves had gone to ask of you, had also induced the Renards to join them in a fresh attempt against the French, and that the Sakis not wishing to take part in this league had wholly separated themselves from the other tribes. 1 2 See Wis.

Phantom Letters: Acadian Correspondence, 1766-1784
DOCUMENT Phantom Letters: Acadian Correspondence, 1766-1784 INTRODUCTION AT A SESSION ON THE ACADIANS during the 1974 Southern Historical Association Convention at Dallas, Texas, a member of the audience suggested that the influx of Acadians from the Anglo-American colonies, Nova Scotia, Saint-Domingue [Haiti] and France into Louisiana between 1765 and 1785 was possibly more than an uncanny coincidence. i He then inquired whether or not correspondence between the widely separated groups of exiles were extant. Although the assembled Louisiana historians agreed that the exiles must have corresponded amongst themselves, no one could cite documentary evidence supporting this hypothesis. Intrigued by this historical mystery, this writer has searched for traces of these phantom letters for nearly 18 years. This search has produced abundant evidence to support the hypothesis put forth by the Southern Historical audience. Unfortunately, there are no extant copies of letters between Acadian exiles. But the late 18th-century documentary records of France, Spain and the United States contain numerous references to them. In January 1763, for example, the Acadians exiled to England provided a French secret agent with information regarding the Acadians in England, in France and in the English seaboard colonies, based upon information obtained through correspondence with other exiles.2 Perhaps the most significant traces of correspondence between Acadian exiles exist in the Belle-île-en-Mer records. Following the installation of numerous Acadian exiles upon the windswept French island near the Breton coast, the French government, in 1767 and 1768, interviewed several elderly Acadian settlers in an attempt to reconstruct their family genealogies. -

Guide to Louisiana Resources in Spanish Archives
GUIDE TO LOUISIANA RESOURCES IN SPANISH ARCHIVES The Historic New Orleans Collection https://www.hnoc.org/research/online-resources Guadalupe Fernández Morente Esther González Pérez INTRODUCTION Louisiana, a Spanish province from 1762 to 1803, enjoys a particularly rich archival legacy. The importance of that legacy has been recognized by successive generations of historians, archivists, and administrators. Antonio de Sedella, during his first tenure (1787–90) as pastor of the then parish church of St. Louis, undertook a project to recopy for security and posterity the essential records of the church. The decision proved invaluable when many of the documents were destroyed in the 1788 New Orleans fire. Pierre Clément Laussat, the French colonial prefect charged with the transfer of Louisiana from Spain to France and France to the United States, fought to preserve the integrity of the Spanish archives. In 1846 Louisiana Secretary of State Charles E. A. Gayarré began an official project to organize, collect, and maintain colonial records. He subsequently secured funds so that blank paper could be purchased for the copying of Louisiana records in France and Spain. In 1850 Gayarré issued his Report on Louisiana Archives in Spain to the state legislature. While Gayarré’s projects were not continued, other individuals came forth with new ideas that would eventually realize the value of Gayarré’s vision. The Carnegie Institution played a major role, publishing William R. Shepherd’s Guide to the Materials for the United States in Spanish Archives (Simancas, the Archivo Histórico Nacional, and Seville) (1907); Luis Marino Pérez’s Guide to the Materials from American History in Cuban Archives (1907); Herbert Eugene Bolton’s Guide to Materials for the History of the United States in the Principal Archives of Mexico (1913); and Roscoe R. -

Though he was addressing his French allies, the Ottawa chief might as well have directed the same thought at historians who attempt to characterize his actions within the context ofEuropean warfare or limit his leadership to the confines of his own place and people. The role ofPontiac still waits to be analyzed apart from a context that reduces the Indians ofthe Great Lakes region to mere objects upon whom the European powers acted-much like the forests, mountains, and other physical obstacles encountered in the New World. Despite the presuppositions of many scholars ofearly America, Indian civilizations were not in decline. Neither were the Native Americans passive or purely reactive amid the waning days ofthe Seven Years' War between France and England (1756-1763). -
