Did Jean Lafitte the pirate ever live in Jean Lafitte the town?

You don't have to spend a lot of time in New Orleans to realize we here love the pirate Jean Lafitte and the romantic legend that has sprung up around him. We've got bars named after him, we've got a wildlife refuge named after him. There's even a town in Jefferson Parish named after him.
That last point got reader Steve Ruiz thinking. He asks: Did Jean Lafitte the pirate ever live in Jean Lafitte the town? www.nola.com

Everyone in lafitte knows where the little temple is. South of Perot and rigolets north of little lake. Just look at a fishing map.

I dont think that route from barataria to NOLA is correct, that is down the Wilkerson canal and was not dug out for several years later.

In 1814 the British offered him $30,000 and to be a captain in the Royal Navy if he"d join them. He did not....⚔️⚔️⚔️ By the way, he spelled his last name with 2 "F"s.
