Gordon & List, There appear to be two separate records for the marriage of Marie Madeleine BREAU & Honore BREAU (who were only 3rd cousins) on the same day of 18 Jan 1773. One is in the parish of St. James Catholic Church (SJA-1, 44), which does give her parents, the other in Ascension Catholic Church (ASC-1, 122), and gives only his parents. Both are found in Baton Rouge Diocese, Catholic Church Records, vol. 2, pp. 146, 149 & 150. Honore BRAUD, son of Alexi & Marie TRAHAN of Acadia, married on 18 Jan 1773 to Magdalena BRAUD, daughter of Jean Baptiste & Marie Rose LANDRY. Witnesses: Paul BRAUD; Michael BERTONVILLE. Recorded at Ascension Catholic Church, Donaldsonville, LA (ASC-1, 122). Honnoré BRO, son of Alexis & Marie TRHAM [sic], married on 18 Jan 1773 to Magdelaine BRAUD of LaFourche Parish (parents not given). Witnesses not given. Recorded at St. James Catholic Church, St. James, LA (SJA-1, 44). Any ideas why it would appear in both parishes on the same day?
