Jules T. Anduze (1850-1932) was a cocoa plantation owner in southern Trinidad in late 19th and early 20th century. The two main plantations were ‘El Perial’ and ‘San Jose’. He established Jules T. Anduze Plantations as a limited company in 1929 to manage various properties and estates, mostly in the ward of Erin in the south of Trinidad. Jules Anduze married Carmen Rios (Maria del Carmen Rios de Los, 1854-1946); their son Felix Leonard Anduze (1885-1962) was married to Mercedes Cabrera (Ana Maria de Las Mercedes Cabrera y Nyer, 1891-1958). Felix Anduze inherited his father’s estates. A severe hurricane in 1933 eradicated much of the Anduze family fortune and the estates were wound down by 1947. The Anduzes still held considerable property and through Felix Leonard Valentine (Leonard or ‘Lenny’) Anduze (1920-2009) established a number of oil and drilling companies. Lenny Anduze, who had lived on Coffee Street in San Fernando, left Trinidad in the mid-1960s, settling initially in Alassio, Italy, before moving to Tillingham in Essex, where he died in 2009. Lenny Anduze published two books: ‘When the lion stumbled: a history of the St Ann’s and the Fondes Amandes valleys of Trinidad, 1779-1932’ (1989) and ‘Drinking with the gods: stories from a cocoa plantation in the West Indies’ (2000, self-published).
