Pierre Aristide Menard was born to Pierre Menard and Caroline Romero on April 20, 1852, in St. Martin Parish, Louisiana, and was christened by the priest at St. Martin de Tours Catholic Church in St. Martinville, where his birth was registered.[1] In 1850, two years before Aristide's birth, the family was intact and living in St. Martin Parish. [2] But a few years after Aristide's birth his father died. In 1860 Caroline was counted as a widow and living with all but one of her children, including her oldest, Carmelite, and Carmelite's husband, Villeon Viator, in St. Martin Parish, Louisiana.[3]

On August 28, 1875 Aristide Menard married Marie Celina Picard in the Iberia, Louisiana Courthouse.[4] A year later, after their first child, Maria, was born, they had a church wedding at St. Anne's Catholic Church in Youngsville, Lafayette Parish, Louisiana. [5]
