HUGH DUDLEY AUCHINCLOSS, youngest of the nine children of John and Elizabeth (Buck) Auchincloss, was born at his father's summer home in Newport, R I, July 8, 1858. His mother was a descendant of Thomas Dudley, colonial governor of Massachusetts. He was prepared for college at the Collegiate Institute of Morris W Lyon (B A. Yale 1846) in New York City.
Soon after graduation [Yale College, Class of 1879] he entered the employ of Muir & Duckerworth, cotton buyers in Savannah, Ga, and remained with them nearly two years. January 1, 1882, he was admitted to partnership with his brother, John Winthrop Auchincloss (PhB Yale 1873) in the firm of Auchincloss Brothers, dry goods commission merchants in New York City. The business had been started by his grandfather, Hugh Auchincloss, who came from Paisley, Scotland, and established here the thread industry of the Coats firm in 1805. He retired from this business in 1891 to devote himself to managing private companies in mining, manufacturing, transportation, as well as banking and other interests. He was trustee of the Bowery Savings Bank and Franklin Trust Co, director of the Bank of Manhattan Co, the Consolidated Gas Co , and the Farmers' Loan & Trust Co, all of New York, and had many other financial connections. With his classmate, Ralph Barker,
he was engaged in the development of a nitrate property in Florida.
Mr Auchincloss died of apoplexy, following an illness of over three years from a complication of diseases, at his home in New York City, April 21, 1913, in the 55th year
of his age. One of his brothers (B A Yale 1871) died in 1878. Another brother graduated from New York University in 1864.
He married in New York City, November 19, 1891, Emma Brewster, daughter of Oliver Burr and Esther Judson (Goodsell) Jennings, sister of Walter Jennings and Oliver Gould Jennings (B.A. Yale 1880 and 1887, respectively), and of the wife of Mr Auchincloss's classmate, Dr. Walter B. James. Mrs. Auchincloss survives him with two daughters and a son.
