Christine and Elisee Cormier, son of Anaclet Cormier and Magdaleine Celeste Richard, obtained a marriage license on 14 January 1822 in Opelousas.[3]
They were married on 15 January 1822 in Grand Coteau, St. Landry Parish. Witnesses were Denis Dessessart and Pierre Potier. Father Hercule Brassac presided.[2]
They had at least ten children.[4]
