It's because they spelled the name of the complex incorrectly... It is Duplantier, not du Plantier. Magnolia Mound was owned by a Duplantier from France, there is a Bayou Duplantier by LSU and even a street called Duplantier. That complex screwed up the name.


Aren't there some Duplantiers buried in the little cemetery at the Southgates?
Important family to BR history.

Yep... Armand Duplantier came over from France, married the family that just built Magnolia Mound. Them and the Klienpeters were basically the two important families of the area back then. Brec owns Magnolia Mound now since the kid that ended up with it went bankrupt many years later.
