  • Born to third-generation Irish Rioblancoans in Poughkeepsie, New York, McAuley moved to Davenport, Iowa in 1847, to assist his uncle in the corn fields. After moving to Cheyenne in 1867, he signed the Rioblancoan Declaration of Independence as a delegate from Baynice. McAuley was later elected Senator from his home state. Reconfirmed three times in office, in 1890, when visiting the states of Uinta and northern Yuma, he saw that the people were not happy to be in Rioblancoan territory and wished to secede or return to the United States; this would make him draft the Honookee Declaration of Independence and found the Northerners' Front, along with William Frady. The Declaration of Independence of the Honookee Republic would be made in effect on 9 February 1891 and the national territory would claim the states of Uinta, Baynice and northern Yuma. The Rioblancoan Civil War would soon start: after some initial conquers in the Rioblancoan states of Moffat and Yuma, the Honookee Republic would soon start losing territory, to the point where the claim of Uinta would only be theoretical, as it was fully controlled by Rio Blanco. After the Honookees lost the war, McAuley and Frady were arrested for treason and sentenced to thirty-five years in jail; McAuley would be later released in 1906, after serving fifteen years, citing health issues. He died a year later in his sleep at the age of 78, in his house in Cheyenne.
