Funeral services at the Hazel Dell Church near the Aucutt farm were at 1:30 o'clock yesterday
evening, conducted by Rev. Mr. Mundell of LaPlata. Burial was in the Hazel Dell cemetery.
Surviving Mr. Aucutt are his widow and nine children, who are: William Aucutt, Edgar Aucutt,

John Aucutt, Cherry Box; Mitchell Aucutt, Hurdland, and Mrs. Maude Garnett, Atlanta. He also

Illinois. He died 11 Sep 1952 in San Francisco, San Francisco Co, California and
was buried in Elmira Cemetery, Vacaville, Solano County, California.
1. Extracted from a history compiled by daughter Faye Hearold Carey
"Clyde HEAROLD's mother died when he was six years old. Legend has it
that he and his four year old brother Owen were cared for for several years
by a family named Peterye.
They did not know how to spell his (Clyde's) name therefore the
two boys had a different spelling than their younger brothers and sisters. As
a young teenager Clyde had no place to go when Matt Reich took him under his
wing. He lived with the family and worked on their Illinois River ferry boat
between La Grange and Beardstown. He cared a lot for the family and named one
of his daughters after the youngest Reiche girl.[Birdella]
After Clyde grew up, he worked on a dredge boat where Flora WILLIAMSON
was a cook when they met. They were married 21 Aug 1913. Clyde built a
houseboat where they lived while he was commercial fisherman on the Illinois
River. He then made a fish market out of the houseboat and docked it at
Browning, IL. After selling the market, they moved to Pike Co, IL where he
worked first on the locks at Quincy, then as a tugboat pilot on the
Mississippi River.
His next venture was trucking. Clyde had two trucks which were kept
busy hauling corn, etc. from Illinois to Missouri. That was the forerunner of
the large trucking companies. When the depression caught up with them, they
moved to California in 1936 trying to find greener pastures.
Clyde worked as a carpenter at the Southern Pacific Railroad shops in
Sacramento for several years and ended up ranching outside of Vacaville for
the last few years of his life. He was always a very working man. The day he
died he drove a load of fruit to San Francisco and collapsed when he got out
of the truck. He died that night from a blood clot in the aorta.
Flora was kept busy raising a large family. During the depression the
children were comparatively well dressed and fed due to her capability as a
seamstress and cook. She was able to make nice warm coats for the small
children out of the good parts of adults' old pants and many other clever
ideas that kept the family going. Although they had a large family they
always to be able to help others. They frequently had relatives and friends
staying with them and everyone always felt welcome. Flora suffered as a heart
invalid the last few years of her life."
