Jenrette, Jeanerette, and Jenerette is a French-Swiss surname. I have not found a listing in any of my Cuban references. Interesting to note that according to the the Social Security Death records and White Pages search over 70% of Jenrette's in the United States are found in the states of North Carolina, South Carolina and Georgia. Macy's was founded by Rowland Jussey Macy in 1858 (R.H.Macy & Co. 1877) and merged in 1994 with Federated. Closely held company. A famous NYC Jenrette was Richard Jenrette, born in Raleigh, NC, and founder of the investment banking firm of Donaldson, Lufking & Jenrette in 1959. The firm was acquired by Credit Suisse in 2000.
