  • An analysis of the Tricou family and its likely influences
    Note: I consulted French pronunciation guides for Tricou and Gvaudoin, and asked a Louisiana local to check. Tricou is pronounced Tree-coo and Gvaudoin is pronounced Vo-dwin (local dialect) or possibly Vo-dwahn (regular French).

    Thank you to everyone for your views and lovely comments! I would just like to mention that I have no plans to make more videos for a variety of reasons, particularly the fact that I have an autoimmune disorder and anxiety which means I'm incredibly reluctant to promise any more content. But I am very happy that so many of you enjoyed this video and the information in it! Thank you so much!

      Thank you so much! I don't know if I'll make any more since I just got really fixated on them and found out things I figured people would like to know, including pronunciations. It took me something like 16 hours, not including research haha!

    I loved this! Maybe those teenages were orphans, a wink to the Rain-Tree Society. They recognize Jon Smith Tricou as they father because he was kind of a benefactor. In my mind, I visualize this story: Rainelle could be the daughter of the second half of this society and she bought the house once the Tricou died as a desire to connect with her family, their history with this important "kind of" friendship.

    Ooo, I never knew about all the real-life references to New Orleans and I'd always kinda wondered where some of their names came from. They all have such unique names and then you have Jon Smith 😂 I love all the theories surrounding the Tricous and the Teens, it's crazy how developed they are for being already dead and I always get excited when I spot one of the Teens out in the wild.
    Top-notch script and narration, I really hope to see more in the future!
