I worked on the railroad with some black dudes who spoke creole here.Ton Ton Macoute meant to them scarecrow. They have this word here. I am Louisiana.

Bonjou my Louisiana friend!
In Haiti, we are glad that the Tonton Makout Era is over.
We're working hard so history doesn't repeat itself.

I wonder if the expression "TonTon Macoute" in your area
means the same as in Haiti...

Great to hear from you :)
Pase bon jounen ☺

Have a nice day!

Ask me anything
