Mark Labine will discuss its demise during the French and Indian War, the Acadian deportation of 1755, and trace his Labine family migration from Acadia in 1755 to Minnesota in 1878.

Mark was born and raised in Argyle, MN, on a farm homestead by his ​French-Canadian ​great-grandfather Alfred Labine. Mark is the treasure and founding member of the French-American Heritage Foundation.
