Notes - After their wedding, Frederick and Adeline settled near family in BatonRouge, where they had 12 children, four daughters and eight sons. The couple was confirmed to be living in Baton Rouge in 1840,in 1850, and in 1860. Frederick became oneof the highly respected men of the East Baton Rouge and Iberville Parishes, and accumulated considerable wealth inthe lumber business, which he lost duringthe Civil War by refusing to take the oath of allegiance. The reason for this may haveto do with Frederick's love of the southern way of life. In Sep 1850, he owned 30 slaves, many of whom probably worked at his mills. There were two Arbour sawmills, one at Grosse Tete and one at Baton Rouge, which were located on barges moored on the river front.It is not clear whether the sawmills were owned jointly by the elder Frederic as well as his son Frederick, or by the son alone. It is said, however, that the younger Frederickbuilt his large Baton Rouge home of red cedar from Tennessee which hadbeen floated down the river for a proposed railroad which would have connected Baton Rouge and Port Gibson. When the plan for the railroad fell through, Frederick obtained the lumber for his home. This was probablyin about 1831 or 1832. An interesting note about Arbour heritage hereis that even though they were separated by more than 2,000 miles, Arbours from all branches of the family pursued their fate within the lumber industry. Frederick's house,known as the Big House, rested on whatis nowthe corner of First Street and Louisiana Avenue in Baton Rouge. Many years later, the railroad put tracks down quite near the house. In fact, they were so close that sparks from the coal-burningengines often ignited fires on the house. Thissad factis the reason why the house waslater torn down instead of being preserved. During the Civil War, lifein Baton Rouge became too risky for the family so Frederick sent the women and children to live in Grosse Tete, Louisiana. After the War,Fredericwas forced to attempt to regain his life out of salvaged war losses. These trying times were no doubt the reason that Frederick did not live much longer. Of Frederick's extensive landholdings in Baton Rouge, 10 acres were still registeredas the "estate of Frederick Arbour" and remained within the family through 1962. At that time, Tallulah Arbour retained custody of the deed and paid the annual taxes in the event thatthe family should ever want to do anything with the property.
