Will and testament of J[ea]n P[ier]re F[ranço]is Bruno Aubrÿ, New Orleans
[This document was enclosed in a notarial act and cover of the same date (q.v.).] Jean Pierre François (or, as given in the document, Juan Pedro Francisco) Bruno Aubrÿ, a native of Rouen but now a resident of New Orleans, the legitimate son of Pedro Francisco Aubrÿ and Genobeba Lorrat, stated that the present document as his will and testament. He declared that nineteen months prior he had married Elizabeth Roche, widow of Juan Lafite. From the union Aubrÿ and his wife had a son Carlos, age six months, but his wife also had a child by a previous marriage, a son named Juan Enrique Lafite, six years old. His wife brought property worth 600 pesos to the marriage. The couple owned a house on Royal Street. Aubrÿ claimed he owed no money except that represented by two promissory notes, one for 5,000 pesos in favor of Nicolas Lobe, and another for 2,000 pesos in favor of his father-in-law Enrique Roche. He appointed Miguel Fortier as his testamentary executor. Finally, he named his son Carlos Aubrÿ as his sole heir. [A translation with commentary appeared in the New Orleans States, 1933 March 5. The writer claimed that Aubrÿ's stepson, Juan Enrique Lafite, and the pirate Jean Lafitte were one and the same person.]
