Eva Delhomme Birth July 1886 in Carencroe,Louisiana, USA
(((((Note: About the marriage of Alice Dugas to Joseph Delhomme.
Civil Marriage:
07 June 1884 Lafayette Parish Court house
(marriage #3778)
Lafayette, Lafayette parish, Louisiana
Religious Marriage Rites:
23 June 1884 Saint John the Evangelist Catholic Church
(volume 7, page 3, #24)
Lafayette, Lafayette parish, Louisiana
Until recently, in Louisiana, you had a civil marriage, followed by religious marriage rites.
It is only recently that the State of Louisiana has come to recognize and legalize religious marriage ceremonies. The catholic church has never recognized civil marriages and probably never will.
Southwest Louisiana Cajun Catholics considered the civil marriage merely a formality prior to the actual marriage, which was the church wedding. If one was not married in the church, one was considered to be living in sin. Parents usually kept their daughter at home until "properly" married in the church.
Anyway, that is why you usually see two marriage dates in early Louisiana marriage records. Both dates are correct. Either date is correct. ))) (((According to Contributor: Sebastian #46550973)))
