No primary source has been bound for either the birth or marriage of Barbara A Haefner.
That she is the daughter of Valentine and Pauline is inferred from the 1850 census and her being a sponsor at the baptism of (sister) Theresa's son, George Walter Casey.
That this is the same person that married Francis L Aude is deduced from the death record of her son Joseph F, which gives "Hefner" as the maiden name of his mother (though the death record of her daughter Mary Susan has Worthington as her mother's maiden name). These are index records and the death certificates have not been seen.
Also, in the 1900 census, Barbara A, now a widow, gives her father's birthplace as Germany and her mother's as Kentucky, the birthplaces of Valentine and Pauline.
