Do Breton and Poitou records link families to 1785 to 1790 Louisiana names?

Research question: Do parish or departmental records in the Breton and Poitevin Acadian settlement areas preserve family reconstitutions that can be matched against 1785 to 1790 Spanish Louisiana census names in Attakapas and Opelousas?

The holdings list includes a three-volume Robichaux compilation of Acadian exiles in Saint-Malo covering 1758 to 1785 ¹. It also includes an index of Acadian families in exile tied to 1785 ² and a compilation of Acadian marriages recorded in France ³. The facts do not say whether any of these sources draw on Breton or Poitevin parish or departmental registers, and they do not mention family reconstitutions or the 1785 to 1790 Spanish Louisiana census. No fact confirms a match between France-based records and Attakapas or Opelousas names ¹²³. The entries show coverage years but no publication dates, so the recency of the holdings cannot be stated ¹²³.
