Family Biography

" “Cecilia’s family was in the shipping business. Her brother, John F. Lafitte, with whom her husband, Edward, would later be affiliated, as the agent in Nassau during the Civil War for Fraser and Trenholm Company, which served as overseas financial agent for the Confederacy, William Trenholm being the Confederate States’ Secretary of the Treasury. John Lafitte, who regularly sent in war supplies for the Confederacy, in one instance shipped from Nassau 1,750 yards of piece goods, handkerchiefs, thread, buttons, and one hundred pounds of soap for the orphans.(Cotton, which could not be manufactured to any extent in the South, was shipped to Nassau for manufacture). One of the ships of the Fraser and Trenholm Line, which operated a large fleet of blockade runners, was named “The Cecile” for Cecilia Lafitte. By a strange coincidence, serving on “The Cecile” as engineer in charge of steam navigation was Augustus Octavus Barbot. Octavus, who also served on other ships of this line operated by John Lafitte, the blockade runners, “The Fox,” “The Jupiter,” “The Jesse,” was the grandfather of Helen Joan Barbot. This Helen, in 1940, would become the wife of another Leon Brux – Leon Sebastian Brux, Jr., the great grandson of Cecilia and Leon. " ^[6][7]
