There's more to report here. . either the folks at Ancestry.com have figured out our name, or more descendants have written in corrections -- whichever, I'm grateful for it. . here goes. .
Robert Lamtalol (hah!) b. 1886 in Louisiana, living in Franklin, St. Mary parish, living with wife Annie Louise and son, Marrie Edward
Vincent Loustalot, b. 1844 in Louisiana, still living with son Edgar, wife Annie and children Myrtle, Bernardine, Matthew and Garald, in Franklin, St. Mary parish. This family has been on both 1900 and 1910 censuses.
Edward Loustalot, b.1880 in Louisiana, living in Franklin, St. Mary parish, with wife Emma and children Eulie and Edward
Samuel Loustalot, b.1868 in Louisiana, living in St. Tammany parish, with wife Alice and son Alton
Fleetwood Loustalot, b.1871 in Louisiana, widowed, living in Hammond, St. Tammany parish, with adult children Hatton and Sally. Interesting, when I looked at the census page to check the spelling and ages of the children, I noticed the next door neighbor's name was Harry Fleetwood -- what are the odds of 2 Fleetwoods on the same street? Must have been a popular name at the time. .
Henry Loustalot, b. 1870 in France, living as a lodger in New Orleans
John Loustalot, b. 1875 in France, living in New Orleans on Frenchman St. (hah!) with his cousin, Henry Bonnelucy, working as a dairy laborer

Armond Loustalot, 1883 in Louisiana, living in New Orleans with wife Odette and son Armond
That's it so far. .

More Louisiana Loustalots and the 1900 census
Ancestry.com does not yield any Louisiana Loustalot "hits" until the 1900 census (likely due to census taker misspellings and transcriber ignorance of French names) when I find another family in St. Tammany Parish, Louisiana. We find Samuel Loustalor, b. Louisiana in 1866 (not included on any previous censuses that I've found yet) living with his wife Sarah and children Samuel, 5yo, Alvin J., 3yo and John C., 8months.
In Franklin, St. Mary parish, Louisiana, I find Edgar (maybe Edward) Loustolet (see what I mean?) living with his family, b. 1875 in Louisiana (not included on any previous censuses that I've found yet) wife, Annie, and child Myrtle, 1yo.
***ADDENDA** In my wanderings around the web, I've found a Loustalot that didn't initially "hit" on the 1900 census -- Vansant Lousttol (for obvious reasons, which I corrected) b. 1846 in France, living with wife Eulalie and children Albert, Robert, Augustus and Eugene. . that should make things clearer for future census searches. .
In New Orleans I find Jean Loustalot, b. 1875 in France, imm. to US in 1892, a proprietor in a hotel. Jean is listed as single.
What I find interesting is that the children's names are not "French inspired." By that, I contrast them with Loustalot children I find on censuses living in California at the same time, where the girls are Marie, Louise, and Madeleine, and the boys all Pierre, Jean and Louis. I'm thinking this indicates the mothers were not French, but Americans already living in Louisiana . . just a guess. .

Louisiana Loustalots and the census search at Ancestry.com is not my friend. .
Well, I thought this would be revelatory and yield unbelievable results, but alas. . no. . Looking up Loustalots who have lived in Louisiana from the earliest years reveals little by way of "hits" in the Ancestry.com database. . I'm pretty sure it's due to a combination of census taker misspellings and transcriber ignorance of French names, but nonetheless. . here it is. .
The 1860 census reveals a Jean Loustalot (transcribed "F Lostotol" -- see what I mean?) living with his family in Covington, St. Tammany, Louisiana. . b. 1821 in France, working as a "house carpenter" and living with his family: Elizabeth, 20yo, Elon, 9yo, Martha, 7yo, Emolee, 2yo, Mary, 2 months, Patric, 7yo, and Jane, 8yo. Now, my take is Elizabeth is a second wife and Elon and Martha belong to the first wife, likely dead. Emolee and Mary are most likely her children with Jean. Patric and Jane are listed as being last named Loustalot (Lostotol) but that could be an error. There are no relationships included in this census. Patric and Jane are unusual names for French children, but I don't know where to go with that idea. .
