French Village is a rural community of the Halifax Regional Municipality in the Canadian province of Nova Scotia on Chebucto Peninsula.〔(Explore HRM )〕 French village initially included present day villages of Tantallon, Glen Haven and French Village.〔(''Places and Place Names of Nova Scotia'', Nova Scotia Archives and Records Management, p. 223 )〕 The French that migrated to the area were French speaking families from the Principality of Montbeliard (annexed by France 1793)and known as the "Foreign Protestants". They had come to Nova Scotia between 1750 and 1752 to settle Lunenburg, Nova Scotia. Contrary to belief, they were not Huguenots. In 1901, the Halifax and Southwestern Railway was built through the area and the railway choose the name French Village for the station serving the three communities. The French Village station, actually located in Tantallon, has been preserved as a cafe beside the recreational trail that follows the old Halifax & Southwestern Railway roadbed.〔("French Village Station", ''Halifax & Southwestern Railway Digital Preservation Institute'' )〕 ==References==
