Geocache Description:

Colchester County Acadian Heritage Series. A series of caches showing “snapshots in time” of Acadian life in this county. All locations are signed and documented as significant Acadian Historical Sites. Container: large PB jar

Our home borders on both Hants and Colchester counties, we were quite surprised to discover how large the Acadian influence was in this area. Most of these historical sites are newly developed, please take the time to sit and enjoy their locations. Watch for the blue signs with a yellow star at the top … these signs have interesting information regarding each place.

Members of the Aucoin family were living here by 1703. Several families left to settle on Ile Saint-Jean (PEI) before 1752. There were Acadian dykes on these marshlands and a grist mill on a nearby brook.
