This marriage lasted till her death in 1852. His successful management of both his and his wife's properties allowed him to acquire additional properties. By 1860 he was considered the wealthiest free black slave owner in Louisiana.〔 In the early 1860s he met and married Mary Ann Walsh. He had nine children with his first wife and three more with his second wife. The Civil War devastated the sugar industry in Louisiana and impoverished Dubuclet along with his fellow planters.〔
