My great x 5 grandfather was a pirate named Jean Lafitte, who resided at (and smuggled/hid out at) what is now Lafitte’s Blacksmith’s Shoppe, the oldest bar in America .. he also got up to many other shenanigans back in that time .

That’s. Good one pulling Jean Lafitte out. Dude was a badass historically speaking.
