Battle of King William's War

The Battle of Port Royal was fought on 19 May 1690 at Port Royal, the capital of Acadia, during King William's War. A large force of New England provincial troops arrived before Port Royal. The Governor of Acadia Louis-Alexandre des Friches de Menneval had only 70 soldiers; the unfinished enceinte remained open and its 18 cannon had not been brought into firing positions; 42 young men of Port-Royal were absent.
