Hello Cousine Barbara Ann The Bertaut brothers had a plantation on the westbank of the river a few miles south of Donaldsonville. It's on the Persac map which you can order from many Louisiana bookstores, genealogical sites, etc. I don't believe the plantation house had a name or anything. It just went by the Bertaut brothers. My g-g-grandmother's ([Cecile] Florestile Melancon) first husband was Drausin Bertaut...who was either Auguste's brother or son...there were several Augustes. Two plantations upriver is labelled J.J. LeBlanc, which is my g-g-grandfather, Florestile's second husband. It's all in the family.
