Heather | 183 comments This book had to have been published anywhere from the 1960s to 1980s. It was based on the poem Evangeline by Longfellow. The main character is an orphaned young woman living with her grandfather. Evangeline is an ancestor of theirs, and they have relatives living in Louisiana she's never met. She begins having dreams or flashbacks of Evangeline's life. It turns out she's Evangeline reincarnated, and one of her more distant cousins is her husband. The dreams/flashbacks end after she and the cousin reunite when her grandfather decides they need to go to the relatives in Louisiana.

Mai | 1280 comments I found this book online so I don't know if everything matches: Smouldering Fires by Anya Seton. Can't add the link in the app but it's on Goodreads. She's not an orphan (her dad is dead, her mom is alive) but they do live with the grandfather. It was published in 1975.
