De Ramezay's force arrived in Nova Scotia - 1746
Descripción:
An expedition under the command of Jean-Baptiste Nicolas Roch de Ramezay was sent from Quebec to work with d'Anville's expedition. French priest Jean-Louis Le Loutre was to coordinate the two expeditions. (French priest Pierre Maillard, returning from France, sailed with the expedition.) De Ramezay's force arrived in Nova Scotia in July 1746. He had 700 soldiers and 21 officers. He made camp at Beaubassin, where he was met by 300 Abenaki from St. John River and about 300 Mi'kmaq from Nova Scotia. The total French-Indian force numbered close to 1,300 men.[6] De Ramezay's soldiers spent the summer and early fall at Chignecto and Minas waiting for the arrival of the long overdue D'Anville expedition.[6][7] (During this time period, de Ramezay sent troops to British-occupied Port-La-Joye on present-day Prince Edward Island. In a fierce battle, de Ramezay's men killed 34 British troops and imprisoned the rest.)[8]
