    "Franklin Bache Du Barry was an officer of the U.S. Coast and Geodetic Survey when he was transferred to the U.S. Navy at the beginning of the Civil War. Capt. Du Barry resigned his commission and joined the Confederacy and was stationed at Fort Morgan, Alabama, southwest tip of Mobile Bay below Mobile.

    Rumored to have met Mrs. Caroline Chandler in Mobile before the death of her first husband.


    His father, Dr. DuBarry, was the personal physician and friend of Joseph Bonaparte, brother of Napoleon and King of Spain.

    His grandmother's first husband, Benjamin Franklin Bache, was the grandson of Benjamin Franklin.
    His maternal uncle William John Duane (1780-1865), was the U.S. Secretary of the Treasury and married in 1805 his stepfather's younger sister Deborah Bache, daughter of Richard Bache and Sarah (Franklin) Bache, Sarah being the daughter of Benjamin Franklin.




    Franklin Bache Du Barry was transferred to Charleston where he served on the staff of Gen. P.T. Beauregard. He was afterward transferred to Macon, Georgia, where he married the widowed Mrs. Caroline Holbrook Chandler on February 14, 1863 (one ref. says July 14, 1863). His wife afterward went to Grenada, Mississippi to visit relatives, the Ingrahams, and he was transferred back to Charleston but requested thirty days leave to go bring her back as she was reported ill. "Her family are in the enemy lines," he wrote, "and I have no one to nurse her." They returned to Charleston where he was Chief of Ordinance for the First Military District and Mrs. Du Barry nursed soldiers in the Charleston hospital. In April 1864 he requested six months leave in order to sail to Europe "for my health" and he had reportedly become ill with consumption. He was granted leave and was taken by his wife and his brother (William Duane DuBarry?) on board the FANNY, a blockade runner, which was chased by the U.S Gunboats from Wilmington to Nassau, and two days out he died and was buried at sea.
