Vaghn, and wife Talitha C. Vaghn." abstracted from Boone County Recorder newspaper - October 9, 1901, page 5, column 3: Golden Wedding of Mrs. and Mrs. J.G.Vaughan -- from where names of children are given : "Wm. Ollie, who died early in life" below is abstracted from Boone County Recorder newspaper article -- (for full article see notes under Orville Vaughn)..Dec. 28, 1904 "Orville Vaughn is a son of John Vaughn, of Florence, who has had three sons to meet tragic deaths. About 20 years ago a son just large enough for that kind of work went to the pasture to catch a horse, and being gone too long was sent for and was found lying in the field, having been kicked by a horse. The child lived but a few hours. (This had to have been the son William Oliver but longer than 20 years ago) Several years ago a son who was brakeman on the Q & C railroad (he was the son that died 20 years ago in 1894), was killed in a collision, and last Thursday another (Orville Vaughn) was shot accidentally and killed."
