Grand Pré itself was the heart of a wider area known as Minas or "Les Mines", an area which included settlement on the modem Rivers Pereau, Habitant, Canard and Cornwallis and at times the Avon River. In sorting through the records of the Acadians' years in present-day Nova Scotia, one so frequently finds the term Minas used instead of the names of the individual settlements that it is virtually impossible to isolate them.
