Who Are You People?

My family (both mother and father side) are Acadian. On my father's side they traced back to the first Acadian settlers in the 1600s in Grande Pre, Nova Scotia. And farther back to France. We've survived the Grande Deportation and I believe I have some distant cousins in Louisiana (Cajuns).

That's very cool, Linus. Tracing backwards, to me, is fascinating.
