		Writer and cofounding member (in the 1970s) of the musical group Beausoleil Broussard, Jacques Savoie, who was born in Edmundston, NB, directed his first film in 1982.
		The rediscovery of their own history obviously played an important role for Acadians, and this was soon extended to anecdotal history, biographies, geneaologies, monographs devoted to parishes or individual settlements, and linguistic studies, with Pascal Poirier, the first Acadian senator, distinguishing himself in the latter field.
		The Acadian novel is dominated by the works of Antonine Maillet, whose boundless energy combines epic scope with everyday events, calling on all the resources of popular legend and oral storytelling tradition.

	Acadia, Acadian, French-Canadian:Acadian Ancestral Home Newsletter
		For the Acadians, it was disaster.1500 of them managed to escape deportation by fleeing to the Bay of Chaleurs region and to Quebec where many died of sickness and hunger.
		However, until the middle of the 19th century, the entire Acadian population on the Island succeeded quite well in closing itself off from outside cultural influences, despite the fact that it was broken up into small farming and fishing communities relatively isolated from one another.
		Acadian leaders soon realized that this rapid integration in the mainstream society was being done at the risk of completely banishing the French language and the Acadian culture from the Island landscape, a peril which was also felt in the other Maritime Provinces.

		This Simon was one of a certain number of Acadian individuals who lived during the latter part of the eighteenth, and the first few years of the nineteenth centuries, who left little trace of their existence.
		Because the Acadians who lived on St. John's Island (Prince Edward Island since 1799) during the latter part of the eighteenth century were only tenants of absentee landlords, some of whom lived in Scotland.
		The list also shows that on October 20, 1773, hundred-acre parcels were rented to "Greyguise Myre" (Grégoire Maillet), Joseph "Duvoe" (Deveau), and "Peter Oquin" (Pierre Aucoin), and that on October 25, 1774, "Germain" (Germain) Boudreau took a hundred-acre parcel.

	Acadian Heartland - Thomas Beamish Akins - Nova Scotia Archives & Records Management
		Abbé Raynal portrayed the Acadians as living in perfect harmony with nature and themselves and he blamed the French priests and the "Jealousies of nations" as much as the English for the deportation.
		After disputing the romantic ‘state of nature' view of the Acadians, he accepted that the removal was necessary for reasons of state but that they should have been sent to France.
		He further charged that the Nova Scotia Historical Society, in printing "Judge Morris' Remarks Concerning the Removal of the Acadians" in Volume II of its Collections, had garbled (a tronquée) it and without a shadow of a doubt (dans l'ombre) had left out all that was compromising.

		Filby and Meyer's Passenger and Immigration Lists Index lists three pages of Martins who came to the New World, several in the seventeenth century.13 One was Robert Martin who came to New England a year ahead of Pierre Martin's arrival in Acadia.

		Stephen A. White (a genealogist at the Center of Acadian Studies at the University of Moncton), has written that "in the case of Robert Martin, all that is known of him, is that he signed the capitulation in 1654.

	RAPPORT DU COMITÉ CONSULTATIF SUR LA MOTION M-241 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-28)
		In 1990, the Petition was commenced to officially declare an end to the Acadian exile because it was carried out in violation of English and international law; therefore, the British government and Crown have a moral obligation to acknowledge that a wrong occurred: the Acadians should not have been exiled (10) as criminals.
		Exile and transportation were punishments unknown to the customary law and, whenever the latter was inflicted, it was either by the choice of the criminal himself to escape a capital punishment, or it was imposed by the express direction of some modern act of parliament.
		The Crown acknowledges that the Acadians were treated cruelly, unjustly and in bad faith, in violation of prior treaties and solemn engagements; that the representatives and advisors of the Crown acted, in concert, in a designed effort to end the Acadian culture and community.

	Acadian Genealogy Homepage; Germain Doucet Information
		According to Stephen White (Acadian researcher historian/genealogist at the Université de Moncton), who has been researching for 30 years, there is no birthyear that we can attribute to Germain Doucet who was also known as Sieur de LeVerdure (refer to Dictionnaire Généalogique des Familles Acadiennes published in 1999 at Centre d'Études Acadiennes).
		Many earlier writers (like Bona Arsenault, author of Histoire et Généalogie des Acadiens and Père Adrien Bergeron, author of Le Grand Arrangement des Acadiens au Québec) had stated the wife to be a Marie Bourgeois, given the documented fact that Germain Doucet and Jacques (Jacob) Bourgeois were brothers-in-law.
		There exists the possibility that Germain Doucet nevertheless married, in second nuptials, to a daughter of Guillaume Trahan who gave him no surviving children; but it is as possible that such a second wife is the sister of Jacques Bourgeois and not the sister of his wife.

		The theme of "Arcadia" was prominent in Elizabethan literature, and it appears in the works of writers such as Edmund Spenser, Sir Phillip Sidney, and even Shakespeare, for whom the word was synonymous with the Golden Age.
