Lookup Request – Vermilion Parish Marriage (Guidry–Gage)
Hello, I’m looking for help locating a marriage record in Vermilion Parish, Louisiana.
I am searching for the marriage of:
Groom: Polite (Hypolite / Hippolyte / Hyppolite) Guidry Bride: Eva Gage (may also appear as Sage, Gaje, or Gagee) Estimated marriage date: Between 1909 and 1916 Likely location: Bancker or Abbeville, Vermilion Parish
FamilySearch shows the record should be in one of these volumes:
- Marriage Record Vol. 5–6 (1909–1915) – DGS 7724043
- Marriage Record Vol. 7 (1914–1917) – DGS 7724044
The images are restricted for me, so I cannot view them.
If possible, I would be grateful for:
- The marriage date
- The parents of the groom
- The parents of the bride
- Any additional details from the record (witnesses, officiant, etc.)
Thank you so much for any help.

I've been to my FamilySearch Center today, and I have the two marriage records.I can't post the images here, but I will send you copies by private message. Look for a red number on the envelope at the top right.

I'm sorry for the delay. I couldn't figure out how to get back to this site. AI got me here and I should have saved the site to my favorites. I thought you could get to this site from the FamilySearch Home page.
