This ones a hard one to answer. Boutte family lure has it that one or two of the Boutte boys were part of Lafitte's men. Is there hard documented proof - we are still looking for it. Are there published articles talking about the Boutte men and Jean Lafitte - yes, but with many errors and wide spectulations. Basically I would say that the verdict is still out on this one. If anyone has hard evidence that the Boutte's were part of Lafitte's men, I too would like to know, ie, such as a list of his men (could be pay wage) written by him or someone on his ship - real long shot.
