"What's this," ye say? "Pirates in New Orleans?"

YES!! Legend has it, according to The Ghosts of Pirates Alley, that

In 1814, in the final days leading up to the Battle of New Orleans during the War of 1812, it is said that the pirate Jean Lafitte negotiated his brother Pierre’s “escape" from prison with General Andrew Jackson along Pirate’s Alley. In exchange for Pierre’s release, Jean Lafitte agreed to aid General Jackson in the fight against the British. Legend has it that without the pirates Jean Lafitte provided for the American military, General Andrew Jackson would never have triumphed during the four-part battle in the winter of 1815.
