The two groups from France that lived among the Americans were the Acadians and the French settlers in Louisiana. The Acadians, originally from Nova Scotia, were exiled from Canada and settled in various parts of the American colonies, particularly in Louisiana, where they became known as Cajuns. The French settlers in Louisiana established a vibrant culture that blended French, African, Native American, and Spanish influences, contributing significantly to the region's unique heritage.

If a person is said to have Cajun descent, that person is believed to be descended from the Cajuns of Louisiana. These are French-speaking people who came to live in the backwoods of Louisiana after being forcibly removed from the former French colony of Acadia (in what is now Canada) after the French and Indian War in the 1740s.

Louisiana became French-speaking due to its colonization by the French in the early 18th century. The French influence in Louisiana was further perpetuated by the Louisiana Purchase in 1803, which brought more French-speaking settlers to the region. Over time, French language and culture became ingrained in the state's identity.

Creole cooking often includes tomatoes, whereas Cajun cooking does not. "Cajun" referred originally to people who came to Louisiana from French-speaking Canada, whereas the Louisiana Creoles are descendants of the original French settlers of Louisiana, and many are of mixed European and African descent.

Well I imagine that French would be a minority language but there are French speaking people in various parts of Louisiana - Eunice, Bâton Rouge, New Orléans, Big Mamou. There are also associations of people of French origin in Maine but I'm not sure that they speak French.
