Pedro Nicomedia Curbelo |
Pedro Nicomedes, the son of Juan and Maria Curbelo, moved to Louisiana for reasons unknown to Mary Jo. He married Helene “Ellen” Lamirande. Ellen was the Curbelo family’s connection to the Acadians, who had been expelled from Nova Scotia, and became known as Cajuns.
“They took their few possessions on a ship,” Mary Jo said. “The English would burn their houses so they had nothing to come home to. So many of them died. The conditions were terrible, because sometimes nobody would let them land and they had to keep going.”
