New Orleans or Vodou saint

[CleftOfLight]

Hi I was reading about Marie Leavue (hope I spelled the name correctly) and it said she had a statue of an unofficial saint called Saint Marron,I was just wondering if anyone knows anything about this unofficial saint.

Hm...I know "negre marron" is (was) an escaped slave. I think if anyone would be in need of an unofficial saint it would be an escaped slave. Does that relate to Marie LeVau at all?

The only Saint Maron I know is the one after whom the Maronite church was named, but I do not see what the link between a typically Syrian and Lebanese denomination and Marie LeVau could be...

Tom's idea definitely sounds more promising :)
