Welcome to Acadie ...

So far, we found very little information about Acadie. The little that we've found leads us believe that the community is historic.<1>

We've added Acadie to our Gazetteer with the hope that we can develop more information. We would especially like to find the location of Acadie - knowing its coordinates, we can explore things like its relationship to neighboring communities, nearby cemeteries, etc. If you can help us with Acadie, please Contact Us.

While we don't have a date for the founding of Acadie, you might get a feel for it by knowing that the earliest mention that we've found (so far) was on a map dated 1897.

Time Zone: The area where Acadie was located is in the Atlantic Time Zone (AST/ADT) and observes daylight saving time. The time zone in French: AST- Heure Normale de l'Atlantique (HNA).

Adding Acadie to Our Gazetteer ...

As we work on our Gazetteer, we occasionally find mention of a community that is new to us. When we find such a community, we add it to our Gazetteer with the hope of adding more information in the future.

The earliest source we've referenced which mentioned Acadie was on a map titled Map of Maritime Provinces of Canada (from Rand McNally, 1897).

For more details, see References and Mentions for Acadie.

Footnotes ...

<1>We use the term 'Historic' broadly and it generally means that the community no longer exists. However, it can also mean that the community might still exist, but was significantly larger or had a more 'official' existence in the past than it does now. Unfortunately our sources of data have proven to be unreliable. If you can provide us with more specific information about Acadie, please let us know so that we can improve our accuracy.
