E for Evangeline (A to Z Challenge)

Today my hero is Evangeline. her story you can read here. She is my hero because of her love for Gabriel. Separated by Brits she dedicates her life to searching the continent for the man she loves. In Nova Scotia there is Evangeline Trail and I hope, some day, I'll be able to visit that beautiful place.

So long my friends,
Evalina

    I'm actually related by marriage to the man that Evangeline was supposed to marry. My husband's family is Acadian French.

    This is a new one for me too. Thanks for the link but I think I need a little more time to digest a 50 page document! I'm going to try find a slightly shorter précis of the story.

    You come up with very interesting women in history. I haven't heard of Evangeline's story before.
