  • The Acadian Refugee Camp on the Miramichi, 1756-1761
    The Acadian Refugee Camp on the Miramichi, 1756-1761 by Ronnie-Gilles LeBlanc translated by John Estano DeRoche in consultation with the author Image 1. Boishébert’s Island (Beaubears Island), Miramichi, New Brunswick Photo by “Fralambert” 2010. Creative Commons Licence 3.0. An earlier version of this article was published in French in the journal Acadiensis. LeBlanc, Ronnie-Gilles. 2012. « Les réfugiés acadiens au camp d’Espérance de la Miramichi en 1756-1761 : un épisode méconnu du Grand Dérangement », Acadiensis XLI, no 1 (Winter/Spring) : 128-168. Based on subsequent research, the author has added new material for this January 2018 translation. This article addresses one of the least-known parts of Acadian history: the experience of families who re- mained in Acadie1 between 1755 and 1764. Most studies of Acadian history have treated this question quite briefly or superficially, preferring to focus on the fate of the families who were exiled to the Anglo- American colonies or to Europe in this period.2 And yet, it is one of the most significant episodes in the legacy of Acadie, since the families who stayed behind constitute a major part of the ancestry of the Aca- dian community of the Gulf of St. Lawrence and the Atlantic Canadian region. A great many of these families spent the winter of 1756-1757 at Camp Espérance on the Miramichi River.3 Famine and contagion spread death through the population, already worn down by dislocation, disposses- sion, and flight. How many Acadian refugees were at Camp Espérance during this fateful winter? And how many persons met their end there? Some researchers – including Alonzo LeBlanc and Fidèle Thériault in the 1980s – have already raised these questions and tried to piece together a few partial answers.4 LeBlanc concludes that 600 to 700 people died there that winter, in a population of 3,500 Acadian refugees.

  • As Most of You Know, I Just Arrived Back Home Following a Most Exciting and Wonderful Trip to the Maritime Provinces in Canada
    As most of you know, I just arrived back home following a most exciting and wonderful trip to the Maritime Provinces in Canada. You just cannot imagine the awesome scenery and wilderness landscapes. It is an ongoing debate--Quebec wants to become a country in its own right, and that would leave the Maritimes in limbo. The consensus is that if this occurs, the Maritimes will become a part of the United States, a sad loss for Canada, but a wonderful acquisition for America. After working all night, Monday, May 8, I drove straight to the airport in Lubbock and boarded a flight to Dallas, making a connecting flight to Toronto. As usual, Larry met me at the airport, not trusting me to get to Oshawa alone. After all, he is the King of Mass Transit. (The first time, I came to Canada; he hired a cab, which cost $80 roundtrip.) For $2.75 we can catch the bus, the 192 Rocket to the East-West subway system, and arrive at Union Station where we take the Lakeshore GO train to Oshawa, and then the bus to within a few steps from Larry’s doorway, arriving at 9:30 PM. And amazingly, in about the same amount of time it takes to get there by cab. It was up early the next morning to get ready to catch the 12:30 PM train at ViaRail. Our first stop was in Montreal, so obviously French. Unlike the rest of Canada that has signs and other print in both French and English, everything is French, billboards and road signs.
