Treme Trivia

Anyone who grew up in New Orleans can tell you that Frank is standing next to one of the lions on the Bayou Metairie side of the Peristyle in City Park. I can't tell you how often I visited the Peristyle in my lifetime.

As a young woman, I knew Uncle Russell and his wife, Aunt Mattie. Everybody who came to New Orleans for a visit seemed to stay with Uncle Russell and Aunt Mattie. During the 1960's and early 1970's, I was frequently at their home to see one relative or another. Mostly, I went to see my Grandpa Pete (Peter Dumas Treme).
