On credit, Or. Tucker obtained
several hundred dollars worth OF

facts are that he was a Portu-
guese fisherman named Manuel

One middle aged woman re-
calls her mother telling that her
uncles couldn't throw a cast
net" when they first settled on
the Gulf Coast. This convinced
her that wherever her people did
come from it was certainly far
from fishing waters.
Is it not possible-the bayou
school teachers have wondered
that among the captives Of some
Of the privateering raids of pirate
Jean LATTE and his band were
both Portuguese men and women,
many Of whom were imprisoned
on the islands of the gulf?
Bayou dwellers today recall
stories told them of ancestors
once living on the islands Of
Grand Terre, Deer Island, Plum
Island, and Grand Isles. II is
likely that some of the prisoners
who escaped, when Lafittes
strongholds were later captured
found hiding places in the
marshes. gradually moving north
ward as storms and sea threat
ened their homes.
Many Of the settlers show de-
cided French or Spanish ances-
try while others are definitely
Anglo-Saxon. The drawl of many
is similar to that of descendants
OF Scottish and English noun
taineers of Kentucky and Ten
nessee.
Another speculation arises from
this oddly: While the majority
of families at Bayou Du Large
have French or Spanish names,
both languages are unknown to
them. Nor do they mix with
French or Spanish groups of
neighboring settlements.
Steady intermarriage has
brought about an intricate family
pattern confusing to the occa-
sional outsider penetrating the
village by the cleaning clamshell
road.
The crude planks used for
benches and tables when the
school first opened have now
been replaced with modern desks
And there is a piano, donated by
a woman in nearby Houma who
became interested in the school s
work. Occasionally, moving pic
lures are shown in a tent pitched
beside the bayou.
School essons are held
throughout the Summer. with in
struction in cooking. sewing and
manual training for those who do
not go off "shrimping" in the
gulf with their parents.
The boys. too, learn to operate
the sewing machine in the school
house and many of the ~shirts
and ties worn proudly to school
are their own handiwork
One concession to progress,
however. the bayou women will
not make They refuse to have
their children born in a modern
hospital in town, preferring the
village midwife who attends them
for a fee Of 81. Many babies
born during the winter months
in the marshes do not have even
this advantage.
