History
3
Following the 1755 exile from Nova Scotia, Acadians and their descendants received Spanish land grants and settled the area. Among those arriving in 1785 was Jacques Molaison, who began a business. A settlement grew around his land, and the name Brusly Landing evolved as steamboats stopped to pick up locally grown cotton. Today, residents and descendants of the early settlers call Brusly home.
