[@xblade149]

New Orleans resident here. Thank you for this history. Did you know a lot of the canary islanders settle in chalmete too

[@LouisianaDread]

Yes I do! I’m one of their descendants

Wow! I honestly did not know this place existed! Thank you Kyle! My friends and I are always looking for short Louisiana trips to explore and see places we haven't yet seen. Senior women over 70, we will have to check this place out! We are in south Lafourche.

[@LouisianaDread]

Then you’re going to love this place! It’s very quiet and nice to drive around. Right next to the Capitol building too.

I’ve lived in Baton Rouge for the past 22 years I never knew this thank you

[@LouisianaDread]

I’m happy to share! Check out our other Louisiana history videos!

[@lovelyamerah]

Beautiful houses! I definitely will make some time to stroll the neighborhoods when I visit.

[@LouisianaDread]

It’s fairly close to downtown and the Capitol Building too!

[@kimlalajo]

Very interesting history, Kyle! Thanks to you and Michael.

[@LouisianaDread]

[@LouisianaDread]

It got tons of history and stories!

[@katherinestagg587]

Thank you! Very well presented!

[@LouisianaDread]

I appreciate your compliment!⚜️

The Spanish town parade is NOT a place for kids!!! St Patrick's day parade is a much more kid friendly parade. Both are still fun for adults.

[@LouisianaDread]

Both seem like a good time!

Those native Americans were black. Do your research 😊

[@LouisianaDread]

You saw them?

@@LouisianaDread What part of "do your research" did you not understand. Pick up a book, open it up, and begin to read it. Do your research on the settlement that occupied this area, before the French invaded.
