Table: Acadian population: 1763, 1800

Try This:

  • Click on the "Related Materials" drop-down menu and select "Table - Acadian population: 1763, 1800.”

Notice ...

  • The recorded population of Acadians appears to have nearly doubled in less than forty years.
  • Few Acadians remained in what had become (in 1783) the United States.

Consider!

  • Precise population numbers are impossible to know in the 18th century.
  • 1763 was the height of the Acadian dispersal. By 1800 Acadians had found their way into the French-speaking world or vacant areas where they could once again express their Frenchness.
