The data includes 163 baptisms from 1756 to 1794, mainly of displaced Acadians. A handful of enslaved and Indigenous people are also represented. The data has been prepared for network analysis by regularizing the spelling of names. Source/Target pairs for network analysis were created by creating a pair between all adults who participated in a baptism. The network is assumed to be undirected. The year of baptism or edge creation is included in the edgelist file..csvhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/baptismsocial network analysisNew FranceLouisianaAcadianAmerican StudiesGenealogyHistoryHistory of GenderHistory of ReligionWomen's HistorySt. Martinville Louisiana Baptism Network
