Beautiful Louisiana Creole family of Onesime Louis LEDE and Marie Eve GUILLORY circa 1915 at their home in Mallet, Louisiana. During his life Onesime acquired hundreds of acres. Onesime and his wife's family are both descendants of the early gens de couleur libres (free people of color) of Bois Mallet. As much as many want to believe in the narrative of men of color not being in the household, that is not the case prior to 1920s. In my research, a large percentage of the men from the Creole and

👀 What do you think? The Cajuns, tracing their roots to the Acadian people from Western France, were reshaped in Louisiana after their British-enforced departure from Nova Scotia. Resisting British authority, these French-speaking exiles found a new home in Louisiana’s rural landscapes, evolving into what we now know as Cajuns.

297K views · 10K reactions | Louisiana French is more than just a language it’s a living piece of history. It came from French settlers known as Acadians, who were forced out of Canada in the 1700s and found refuge in Louisiana. Over generations, their French mixed with African, Spanish, and Native influences, creating the unique Cajun and Creole French spoken here. #louisiana #french #louisianaculture #creoles #cajun | The Bearded Backpacker | Facebook
