LE GRAND DÉRANGEMENT
John Mack Faragher gives the example of René LeBlanc, the 73-year-old notary from Grand-Pré. During the chaos of the embarkation at Minas, old René was placed aboard a transport destined for Philadelphia with his two youngest children, Jean-Baptiste-Marie, age 11, and Marie-Jeanne, age 7. However, his other minor children--Joseph-Marie, age 17; twins Pierre-Benjamin and Esther, age 15; and Paul-Marie, age 13--were placed aboard a different vessel. 'Twelve adult children with their spouses and some 150 grandchildren were put on other transports,' Faragher relates, 'and the family was scattered in colonies from Massachusetts to Virginia. This was just the 'immediate' family,' Faragher reminds us, 'and since Acadians had a highly extended sense of kinship, it was inevitable that nearly all the families were fractured and dispersed.'
