Biographical Information:

Maud was the second of six known children born to Cecilia Eugenia Hernandez and Adolfo L. Carrillo de Albornoz. Adolfo (b. 14 Mar. 1841 in Havana, d. 17 Aug. 1896) was the son of Francisca Hernández y Aloy and José Manuel Carrillo de Albornoz y Arango (born 1810 in Havana to Manuela Arango y Nuñez del Castillo and José Manuel Carrillo de Albornoz y Arenales, born 19 Jan. 1772 in Havana). Maud's maternal grandparents were Margaret Cecilia (nee Harrison) and Carlos Fabian Hernández.

Maud is mentioned on page 4 of the Rockland County Journal from June 20th 1885 in an article about closing ceremonies at the Nyack Seminary, a school for young women. She had recited "The Last Hymm" and sang "Take Me, Jamie, Dear". She is described as having talent which could, were it nurtured, "accomplish wonders". Another article in June 1886 reiterated her vocal qualities.

On June 9th 1894 The Rockland County Times notes that wedding invitations for the nuptials of the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. A. L. Carrillo to Dr. G. A. Leitner had been issued and that the event was expected to be "elaborate and brilliant." By the 16th the "well known and popular young people" had been married (on Wednesday, June 13th) by Rev. James L. Crosby in Saint Ann's Church in Nyack. See page 8 of the June 16th issue. In 1905 the Leitner's resided in a house built in the mid-19th century at 369 Ferdon Avenue in Piermont. Between 1910 and 1912 they moved to the big house on River Road in Piermont, just a few yards from St. John's Church.

Proceedings in Surrogate's Court of Nyack were held in October of 1896 concerning the will of her father, Adolpho L., deceased. In that same court her mother, Cecelia E., was granted letters concerning the guardianship of Maud's sister, Genevieve.

The gravesite of Maud's father, Adolpho or Adolfo L. Carrillo (de Albornoz), long time resident of Grand View on Hudson, has not yet been located, although believed to be at Oak Hill in Nyack. Maud's siblings were Rose Natalie, Arthur (Memorial# 165540286), Mary Margaret (Memorial# 177201095), Agnes Cecilia (died June 1878, age 1 year, 1 month) and Genevieve E. .

Obituary:
"Mrs. George A. Leitner," NY Times, Tuesday, 29 November 1938, p. 23.

The Carrillo family can be traced back to 1636 in Havana, when Maud's direct ancestor, Ana Francisca de la Cruz y del Castillo, married Sebastian Carrillo de Albornoz y Rodriguez Coello in the cathedral there on June 5th 1636. Relatives of Maud included Felipe Poey y Aloy (May 26, 1799 – January 28, 1891) and Francisco de Arango y Parreño (May 22, 1765 - March 21, 1837), whose attitude toward slavery was influenced by Alexander von Humboldt, with whom he fostered a friendship.
