Help -- connect my Louisiana Trudeaus to larger tree

Classification: Query
Surnames: Trudeau, Livaudais, Blanchard
One branch of my family tree is a confusing tangle of Livaudais and Trudeaus--

GGmother: Lola Trudeau (b. circa 1887); married James Clarence Blanchard (b. 1884)

GGGmother (Lola's mother): Zima Livaudais (b. circa 1855); married Louis Z (or J) Trudeau (b. 1852)

GGGGmother (Zima's mother): Zima Trudeau (b. 1834); married Jules Livaudais (b. 1828)

--And that's as far back as I can go. You see, my ggggmother, a Trudeau, married a Livaudais, who then married a Trudeau--and they were both named Zima! At least, that's what it looks like.

Please please, anyone with information on the Trudeau family, help me verify if this is correct--and help me identify the parents of the earliest Zima Trudeau on my tree. At some point I had been convinced her father was Felix Zenon Trudeau (b. 1789), but I did not take notes (amateur mistake) and I can't duplicate the research.

Thanks.
