  Residence	New Orleans, Orleans, Louisiana, USA   [7]
  	Villa Meilleur, 1418 Governor Nicholls Street
  	Delphine Bozonier Marmillion, widow of Louis Dufilho (the sugar plantation owner and brother of the pharmacist Louis Joseph Dufilho Jr.), resided for many years in what is known as Villa Meilleur, which is located at the present-day address of 1418 Governor Nicholls Street in Tremé and now houses The New Orleans African American Museum (https://www.noaam.org). Delphine is also my 4th great-grandmother. The villa was part of the Historic American Buildings Survey in 1933 and you can find that information here: https://www.loc.gov/item/la0299. The survey mistakenly notes that Delphine was “wife of the prominent pharmacist,” but the brothers often confused. Governor Nicholls Street was historically known as Bayou Road and this villa was often referred to as “the residence on Bayou Road, between Marais and Villere streets” in many historical records. So, the fact that Delphine Bozonier Marmillion was the owner of this home is very clear. I do not yet know when she purchased the villa, but it was sometime between 1836-1841. Delphine’s daughter, Sophie Marie Josephine (Dufilho) Lartigue, passed away in this home, as did her granddaughters, Delphine Lartigue in 1841 and Felicie (Lartigue) Goldthwaite in 1914. The following was written about the villa in the Historic American Buildings Survey: “Villa Meilleur is a raised creole villa with a basement that is submerged four feet into the ground. This, along with the high-pitched gabled roof, front gallery, central and rear loggias, double interior French door units, long windows, fixed louvered shutters, attic buffer zone, and thick solid brick walls create a perfect response to the hot, humid Louisiana environment. The central chimneys and basement ventilation system allows for excellent air control. The original four dormers allowed for each second primary level room to have cross ventilation through each side window. The millwork throughout the villa is excellent and of heart cypress wood. The floors are heart red pine maintaining their original finish. The large front floor length double hung windows replace original French doors and provide exceptional air control. During the mid-nineteenth century they were installed with very fine and still extant gasoliers.”
