Hi. Its good to meet someone with a bloodline as mixed as mine. In the 1800's Mauritius was a French colony then British then French and finally British. So, like Canada, there are two distinct language groups, French and English. My maternal great, great grandfather was a Mauritian of French descent and left Mauritius for South Africa to farm sugar. Like those Canadians who are french speaking and call themselves French Canadian, my grandparents were French Mauritian. Hope this helps...........
