I believe Paul is my greatgrandfather (who was my mother's, mother's father). My mother's name was Marguerite duTriel and her mother's name was Elise Abele. I know that they, the Abeles, were in the nursery and landscape business for a long time in New Orleans. I believe the shop was on Carollton Ave not too far from St Charles Ave. Paul's wife -I believe- left him when his children were young. Then I think it was Paul's sister, "Aunt Nenzie" who raised the children.
