  Notes	He worked in Pitard's Hardware until the family sold the business. His death date is from his gravestone. His son says that his name was Gustave Joseph Pitard. Both his and his wife's fathers were in Watson's Battery during the Civil War, and were paroled after being captured at Port Hudson. The New Orleans directories for 1890 and 1891 lists a Gustave Pitard and a Gustave Pitard Jr. on 62 N. Rampart working as clerks for the American White Lead and Color Works. There is a record of his testimony in 1912 before the US Senate Subcommittee on Foreign Relations about whether he had ever sold any arms or ammunition to Mexico. People were worried about Pancho Villa. He died of throat cancer; he smoked big cigars his whole life. "It's the only pleasure I have; I'm not going to stop."
