http://www.rootsweb.com/~usgenweb/la/orleans.htmhttp://www.rootsweb.com/~usgenweb/la/orleans.htm - shows a possible death for his mother, Victorine Lestrade Lacoste, aged 47, in 1897. Also for Romain Vignes, aged 72, in 1905, and wife Marie Lestrade Vignes, aged 60, in 1900. (Death certificates might have more info on them?)
www.familysearch.org has a marriage for Victorine Lestrade to Pierre Lacoste, in 1871 in Texas. If this is correct, then they must have gone to Cuba soon afterwards - perhaps Pierre died there and Victorine returned to live with her sister and brother-in-law?
In order to find records in France you will need to find out where they came from. Preferably the exact commune. You can see the distribution of surnames here:
