Summary of Case: A native of Lyons, France, Baud was ordained in 1932 for the Society of Jesus (Jesuits) in California. He spent the better part of three decades stationed in Nulato AK at St. Peter Claver’s Mission, later renamed Our Lady of the Snows. He was a teacher, artist and musician, and is said to have had “a special concern” for children and youth. In 1962, when the Diocese of Fairbanks was established, Baud was moved to Copper Valley School in Glenallen AK. He later served briefly in St. Mary’s, then as a hospital chaplain in Kodiak and Ketchikan, in the Archdiocese of Anchorage and the Diocese of Juneau. He died in 1968. Baud’s name is included on the Fairbanks diocese’s list of “admitted, proven or credibly accused perpetrators of sexual abuse.” He is noted in February 2016 to have had one complaint against him.
