The French folk hereabouts are of Colonial heritage. Bayou Derbonne (which I photographed with my Leica, on-topic) was named in 1714 by French Marines. Cajuns generally live further south, and were exiled from Canada sometime later. - ----- Original Message ----- From: "Marshall Hunt" <huntmc2@fuse.net> To: <leica-users@mejac.palo-alto.ca.us> Sent: Monday, July 15, 2002 10:32 PM Subject: Re: [Leica] SonC's picture this week > Looiaiana crawdads!
