Years: 1755 - 1755
September
The Grand Prè area's four hundred and eighteen Acadian males (age ten and older) of the area are ordered inside the church Saint-Charles-des-Mines on September 5, where they are unexpectedly imprisoned; they will remain so for five weeks.

Winslow informs them that all but their personal goods are to be forfeited to the Crown, and that they and their families are to be deported as soon as ships arrive to take them away.

The wives are ordered to feed and clothe both the prisoners and the troops.

Six days after the initial imprisonment, Winslow, fearing Acadian rebellion, moves two hundred and thirty prisoners on board ships to await deportation.
