Morlas Dairy, 2220 Calhoun Street, New Orleans

According to Simone Morlas of Marrero, the Morlas family home and Dairy in this photo "were shared by Bertrand Morlas Sr. (born in France) and his nephew, John Dominic Morlas (born in New Orleans), and their families." Between the two families they had 19 children--some of whom are shown in this 1898 photo. A few years later, they each opened their own dairies, Bertrand operating "The Calhoun Dairy" from the 3200 block of that street and John Dominic operating "La Belle Creole" on the 6300 block of South Claiborne.
