Saint Malo, Louisiana
Saint Malo was a small fishing village that existed in St. Bernard Parish, Louisiana, on the shore of Lake Borgne from the mid-18th century colonial period into the early 20th century, when it was destroyed by the New Orleans Hurricane of 1915.〔 It was the first settlement of Filipinos in the United States.
==Etymology==
The area of St. Malo is named after the leader of a group of maroons. In 1784 a group of enslaved Africans led by Jean Saint Malo escaped to a marshy area of Lake Borgne, with weapons obtained from free people of color and plantation slaves. Jean Saint Malo was captured by Spanish forces. On June 19, 1784, he was hanged in front of St. Louis Cathedral in what is now called Jackson Square, New Orleans.
The story of Jean St. Malo and the maroon community he founded is extensively explored and documented in historian Gwendolyn Midlo Hall's book ''Africans in Colonial Louisiana: The Development of Afro-Creole Culture in the 18th Century''.
