And thus, family from Beaumont, and being Cajun, the family history of a Great Great Great grandmother dancing with Lafite is not out of the question.

Born and raised in No Man's Land. Deep East Texas. Shelby County. It's a very beautiful place, but also very backward.

My grandma's family ( Youngblood) is from your area my grandfather from Leesville Louisiana. My family has a church and cemetery in Timpson called Corinth. They and another family started that church. It started out over a neighbor feud. Both people were buried there is the story I was told by my great Aunt. I have lots of ancestors buried their from my grandmother up. Been in that part of Texas a few times for funerals. The piney woods looks a lot like Leesville. To me they do anyhow.

I was born and raised in Texas 2 hrs from the Louisiana state line. My dad's father's mother is a Bass. My 4th Great grandfather John Bass and His Wife Delaney Taylor aka Sweat. grandfather was the first of my Bass grandfather's in No Man's Land. Actually I believe the Church that Joseph Had the land came from Delaney. I have Jane Parker MCManus Bass's linage Book (A Glance Backwards )that tells me everything about my dad 's familywho was also born and raised in Leesville. Bass family history. You named Gibson and Griffin. Those Surnames are listed in this book. I do believe our linage is related through the Bass family. Through marriages. My Bass linage also arrived from Mississippi. But their linage goes all the way back to Jamestown Virginia and the Nansemond Native American's. I'm also related to the Groves and Nash's. I'm a Lawrence my grandfather's mother is a Bass.

This is good. Except for one glaring omission. Not one mention of Creole culture. It is very important to the story of No-Man’s Land and West Louisiana.

You mean the music the tribal people are playing? Their personal music they are literally being filmed playing?
