Acadian Immigrants to San Gabriel/Manchac, 1785
These immigrants went to what the Spanish called the "Manchac Coast," which was on the east side of the Mississippi River between San Gabriel and Bayou Manchac, at the northeastern edge of the San Gabriel d'Iberville District, but some of them settled north of Bayou Manchac, near Fort Bute, at the southern edge of the Baton Rouge District, hence the designation "Baton Rouge" in the Comments column.
