Talk:Jean Lafitte

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.

I removed this passage:

Circa 1970, Jean Lafitte's estate included land and at least one oil well, the proceeds of which were divided among his approximately 3000 heirs. These heirs included the descendants of many illegitimate children, whom he fathered by various women. (This information is provided by one of those descendants, whose father received 75 cents and a book naming those descendants.)

because it violates Wikipedia's policies on citation, verifiability, and maybe original research. It's an interseting addition to the article, and it may well be true, but we need a verifiable citation. Tom Harrison ^(talk) 21:09, 1 November 2005 (UTC)
