ST. MALO
St. Malo was the first permanent Filipino
settlement in the United States. In the
first half of the 19th century, Filipino
sailors established a village on the
southern shore of Lake Borgne on a site
previously settled by Native Americans
and Maroons. By the mid-19th century,
St. Malo was the largest fishing village
on the lake and a symbol of the growing
Filipino presence in Louisiana.
