Really interesting reading pertaining to the construction of the main house with the outside spiral staircase.

The Bass’ were Richardson’s nephews. He put them on the island and said build the house with sand and oyster shells. That’s what they did. Made their own masonry mix and built the house.

Thet wound up inheriting everything and multiplied the fortune exponentially with the help of a guy named Rainwater.

Another oil baron had the next island South. They could drive to each other depending if the cut between islands was filled in.

I’ve seen pictures of them with FDR on the beach in their touring car.
