2. Arcadian History in Canada,www.arcadia.org, tells how the Arcadians were kicked out and many stayed away for fear of death, which happened to many when they returned to Canada. Many settled in Massachuetes, Main,all the states along the St Lawerence,eventually settleing in Louisana,Mass,Nova Scotia etc. My family escaped to Mass. and refused to return to Canada when clemancy was granted. That would be Alexander Boodry,whos family survived. Looking for any info on his family who stayed in Mass..he married my greatgrandmother Augusta Ritchie 1889.
