This page is provided to help you find the general vicinity where your ancestor would have lived on a current map. The map on the Acadian-Cajun Genealogy and History web site shows an overall view of the old Acadian locations.

The historical and current map links will display the maps as hosted on Canada's Historical Collection site for Nova Scotia. See the map, provided by Maurice Thibaudeau, on Wikipedia of Port Royal - Prée Ronde for the Acadian families living in that area.
