If you read Angelique's Descent by Lara Parker, she spends a fair amount of time describing the sugar plantations on Martinique (at least I think it was sugar, my memory is getting bad), where the DuPres' made their fortune, and even has Barnabas being in the Navy because that's pretty much required for anyone to be in a shipbuilding family.
