Judge Peter Aubuchon, a prominent judge of St. Francois County, was born in Washington County, Mo., September 8, 1836. A sketch of his parents, Francis and Teressa (Coleman) Aubuchon, who are pioneers of St. Francois County, appears elsewhere in this volume. Judge Aubuchon had excellent educational advantages in his youth, first receiving a common school education and then, in 1855, enjoying the privileges afforded at Ste. Genevieve college. When he turned his attention to self support, he was nineteen years of age, and first began as a clerk at Brickey's Landing on the Mississippi River. He closed his work there in three years, and in 1859 returned to French Village and engaged at farming, and became a partner in the firm of Aubuchon & Sons, dealers in general merchandise. He has been successfully occupied in this work of farming since 1864, when he sold his interest, and engaged in merchandising. In addition to this, he was called to public life as county judge in November, 1886, the position he now holds. He has also served as justice of the peace. In politics, he is a Democrat. It was in 1859, above mentioned, on September 6, that he married Miss Eliza A. Brickey, whose birth occurred in 1840, in the Ste. Genevieve County, Mo. Seven of their eleven children are now living: Clara Rosa, Frederick C., Cora A., Thomas S., Emma T., Peter P. and S. Augustus. The Judge and his wife are members of the Catholic Church.

The obituary of Peter Perry Aubuchon, Thomas' brother, identifies the he is survuved by a brother name Smith. There is a very strong possibility that it is refering to Thomas whose middle initial is "S".
Ann's obituary identified two daughters which currently are not listed, Lilly--Mrs Joseph Aubuchon and Lydia--Mrs. Arthur Rowe.

From GenForum posted by Terry Monks:
I have a Louis Aubuchon in my database showing DOB as 1/3/1847 (possible input error on my part because I haven't researched this branch of the family thoroughly). I don't have the date or location of his death, nor do I have information on his wife or children. I show Louis born in Ste. Genevieve, the son of Louis Antoine Aubuchon (b. 8/31/1814) and Marie Juliet Carron. According to my record (wish I had written down more information about my sources) this pairing had 11 children.
If this is the right connection, I have further information on this branch of the tree that I'd be willing to share. Please advise.
