      Any plans on videos of the towns that don't exist anymore? Like weeks island, bon ami, or ramsey?

      Yes, I will be doing videos on those communities as well! We already did one on St. Malo. @@Pk-io6xe

      Glad to hear it, I loved the Saint Malo video, I hadn't heard of it before you.
      If you do weeks island, don't forget to mention the Indian mound on it. I've found many pottery sherds walking the banks of that area

    You said that the Cajuns, and the blacks welcomed the Yankees from up north. So I guess there were no Créoles around yet.

      There were, they just a super minority in the area and weren’t as welcoming to the English speaking Americans 😂

    Where precisely in the Midwest would anyone grow rice? Pretty sure rice was being grown by southerners long before northern carpet baggers.

      I’m not sure Stanley. This is Louisiana Dread not Midwest Dread. The sources I’ve found said the settlers were from the Midwest and they grew rice.

    Unfortunately I can't afford to pay for these videos. So I guess I'll take my leave, even though I have been following your channel for a LONG time.

      If you really have been following this channel for that long, you would know that these videos are free on RUclips each and every Monday.

    Too bad the first well is actually in Acadia Parish not Jeff Davis. I enjoy your videos on history,not a big fan of your gumbo reviews I’m not complaining I just don’t watch them.

    • @LouisianaDread
      @LouisianaDread  6 месяцев назад

      Probably because you put tomato in your gumbo, which I’m not hating on. I’m just not a fan. The well you speak of was the first used in commercial quantities, not the first in general.

      @@LouisianaDread nope no tomatoes in my gumbo lol. I grew up a still live in Iota not far from Jennings and was always told the first well was the Clement#1 witch never produced. The #2 they completed with screens and flowed for along time.
