Much of the information on the early Aud family you find on 'trees' on the internet came from the following book. Alas, seldom does the information you find on 'trees' on the internet reference the sources. I went to school with your wife's father and am a descendant of France Aud's brother Arnold. If you will email me, I can help you find sources/proof and more clues about the family.

I will bet you that Rachel died on or about 7 Dec 1893 as well. I have done quite a bit of reserach on the AUD line on and off over the years. I have the first line as Thomas in France as well and found it so interesting that they started as Catholics and ended up as Baptisits as early as Maryland. I have often wondered when and why they changed. I will bet they changed in France with the persecution of the Catholics......and then to become members of the Baptist clergy. I will bet that you could make a call to the Baltimore archives and find boxes of documents on the early AUD line. Have a good evening and thanks again, Kay Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.

After I posted the last message, I found some other information on Ancestry.com and elsewhere that I used to piece together a tentative tree. Apparently, the Aud family can be traced backed to the mid-1600s when they immigrated from France to Saint Mary's, MD (the first settlement in Maryland and pretty much the first group of Catholics to come to America). This is of particular interest to me because I grew up in Maryland but always assumed that my wife's family was only centered in White Co., Illinois and before that directly from Europe. One note of historical interest about Martha Ellen: she was one of twins (Rachel being the other; not sure how long she lived) and their mother died when they were about two years old. Their father (Francis Riley Aud, who didn't die until 1951) remarried, but for some reason he put Martha in the care of a relative of his second wife (Sarah Hathaway). The 1900 census has her as a ward of Alexander and Emily Hathaway in Pope Co., IL. By the 1910 census she was working as a servant for Robert Stewart Taylor and his young son (his wife had died recently) and they were married shortly after that.
