1775 - Acadian families on First Convoy to Nantes, France - October 24, 1775
In 1772, the marquis Perusse des Cars gave the Acadians some of his land to farm. But the 1500 Acadians who migrated to the Poitou area found sterile soil and no housing. They had to pay high rent prices in nearby villages. By 1775, the 'La Ligne Acadienne' settlement (as it was called) decided to call it quits... Almost all of the Acadians moved to Nantes, and only 160 were left in the area by the following year. There were 4 convoys to Chatellerault.
In 1775, about 1400 Acadians moved from the failed settlement attempt at Poitou and traveled to the area around Nantes. This would be their home for the next decade. Most of the Acadians left for Louisiana in 1785.
