Pierre Paul Bouet Lafitte was the son of Jean Francois Bouet and Marianne de Lafitte. He was born on March 4, 1745/6, in the Parish of Pouilleroques, in the Diocese of Lectoure, Roquelaure, Gascogne, France. He was baptized there on March 16, 1745/6. He emigrated from France to Louisiana sometime before 1770, He died there in December 1815. He is reportedly buried along the roadside somwhere between Carmel, Goss and Naborton. 
---there are historical valid documents that prove he got $60,000 for 95 slaves in oct of 1817 and plus he was skimming cash off of all spanish hot goods sold in the townn(1/6 share) to boot (he allowed stolen spanish goods taken by others to be sold in "his" town for a fee---but he only allowed spanish goods --no stolen american stuff* --and he never personally "smuggled" items into georgia himself (he sold to others now what they did with it was their bussiness) the two facts and his letter of marquee saved his life since he had letters of marquee to "offically" war on spain what he did was "offically legal"--thus the US could not "legally" hang him) ---he was in control of the island from oct 1817 to dec of 1817 ---folks were buying like crazy for 1/3 of regular price ---(AURY left the island on pain of immedate death if he ever returned ) --he never did and he died rather poor about 3 years later of broken neck after being thrown from a rather wild spirited horse in the caribbean) so on amelia island is a lot of money buried somewhere, --- Ivan
I was always told to follow the money trail,and these guys had the money.As far as the lead containers?Would they have used them as salt lead boxes also?To treat deer hides...I know the indians in the area would pay there debt in deer fur,if not they had to give up land to pay the goods off....Thats how panton company had so much land....
