Letter from Karl Marx to Friedrich Engels, 21 May 1869

Fox has died in Vienna after a 5-day pulmonary disease. His family left in poverty. Letters on this have reached me from Vienna. Fox’s mother (Peter Fox nom de plume, real name Peter Fox André) is a rich woman, who, however, left him completely in the lurch, partly because he married her abigail (now old), and partly because of his atheism. I have now approached her, threatening that if she does not give something, public collections will be held for her son in London. (Marx and Engels Collected Works, Volume 43 : Letters 1868-70, p. 285)

Notes

Can see a probate for father Peter André André in 1863 though nothing evident for Peter Fox André.
