Message Board Post:
I am trying to locate church records for the marriage certificate of John Stevens and
Catherine Kelly approx. 1853 in Lafayette, as well as baptismal records for their sons
James (1854), John Kelly (1856), and William (1858). The Diocese has told me they
don't have these records. I've emailed the Cathedral, St. Mary's as it is the
oldest existent church in Lafayette, but haven't heard back from them. I already know
about the GenWeb site with the timeline list off the churches in Lafayette history, and it
seems like St. Mary's is the most likely church.
I'm going to be driving past Lafayette on Thursday (I'm from California) and was
hoping to stop by and see if I could locate any more info while there.
Anyone have any last minute suggestions on how I can find those old church records if I
don't hear from the church by then?
Thanks for any advice or suggestions!
Jacqi
