Louisiana Creole people
Louisiana Creole people are those who are descended from the colonial settlers of Louisiana, especially those of colonial French or Spanish descent. The term ''creole'' was originally used by French settlers to distinguish those born in Louisiana from those born in the mother country or elsewhere. As in many other colonial societies around the world, ''creole'' was a term used to mean those who were "native-born".〔Kathe Managan, (The Term "Creole" in Louisiana : An Introduction ), lameca.org, Accessed December 5, 2013〕〔Bernard, Shane K, ("Creoles" ), "KnowLA Encyclopedia of Louisiana", accessed October 19, 2011〕
Louisiana Creoles have common European heritage and share cultural ties, such as the traditional use of the French language and may include the continuing practice of Catholicism.〔 In addition, some Creole people may have African or Native American ancestry as well.〔(Helen Bush Caver and Mary T. Williams, "Creoles" ), ''Multicultural America'', Countries and Their Cultures Website, accessed 3 Feb 2009〕
Later immigrants to New Orleans, such as Irish, Germans and Italians, also married into the Creole groups. Louisiana Creoles are mostly Catholic in religion. Through the 19th century, most spoke French and were strongly connected to French colonial culture.〔Christophe Landry, ("Primer on Francophone Louisiana: more than Cajun" ), "francolouisiane.com", accessed October 19, 2011〕 Only the small Spanish Creole communities of Saint Bernard Parish and Galveztown spoke Spanish (until the half of Twentieth century, because since then the number of Spanish-speakers Creoles has declined in favor the English and now few people over 80 years can speak it) and they have maintained the Spanish culture (from Canary Islands, from where their ancestors came from) to the present.〔G. Armistead, Samuel. La Tradición Hispano - Canaria en Luisiana (in Spanish: Hispanic Tradition - Canary in Louisiana). Page 26 (prorogue of the Spanish edition) and pages 51 - 61 (History and languages). Anrart Ediciones. Ed: First Edition, March 2007.〕 They have had a major impact on the state's culture; hence, Louisiana is known as the Creole State.〔
While the sophisticated Creole society of New Orleans has historically received much attention, the Cane River area in northwest Louisiana also developed its own strong Creole culture, as did several enclaves in south Louisiana: Frilot Cove, Bois Mallet, Grand Marais, Palmetto, Lawtell, and others. These communities have had a long history of cultural independence.
