[Loch-soilleir] QoM and WoM

[Fergus Stout]

That is part of the wikipedia entry for "Cajun".  See that part where it says [citation needed] - that is the part that needs some factual source to be quoted to prove the veracity of the statement.  Anyway, we can take the discussion off the list to spare everyone else. :)  I really would be interested if you have a source for that claim though.

Regards,

Fergus

The Acadians were scattered throughout the eastern seaboard, where some 
became slaves in British colonies[citation needed], the Caribbean, and 
Europe. Families were split and put on different ships with different 
destinations. Many ended up in what was then French-colonized Louisiana, 
reaching as far north as Dakota. France had ceded the colony to Spain in 
1762, prior to their defeat by Britain, and two years before the first 
Acadians began settling in Louisiana.

Will this do ?
