Alexa, I contacted the University of Notre Dame Archives. As I understand it, sometime in the 1890s the Archdiocese of N.O. transferred their records to Notre Dame. Later on, copies of certain records were sent back to N.O. The book, FRENCH AND SPANISH RECORDS OF LA. by Henry Putney Beers (pg. 156), says dispensations allowing related couples to marry can be found in the University of Notre Dame Archives. I'm now waiting for an answer to my email to them asking for help.
