Note: Richard lived in Peetz, NE from 1910 to 1937.
He was in the grain business and worked at the Sioux Army Depot. He later worked for the Sidney Public Schools. He was a painter by trade. His services were held from the First Christian Church in Sidney. Richard ( Dick) as he was known, and Ula are buried in the Greewood Cemetery, Sidney, NE.
Ula lived at 1335 Osage in Sidney for many years. They were married at 503 N. Jefferson, Iola, KS, the home of her mother and later Ralph and Alice Vaughn.
Aunt Ula was the family birthday record keeper. She was very helpful in furnishing information on the Vaughn family.
She liked to visit Kansas. She would stop in Lawrence to see Wilma's mother Irene Morton and stop at Aunt Alice Vaughns in Emporia and later in Overland Park, KS. She followed the Nebraska football. One time her and Wilma sat on the hill above the KU stadium, watching Nebraska play.
A story Nadene and Horace Bartlett liked to tell on Ula was this. It seems Blondie was cooking a pot of beans for dinner. Every time he checked on them he had to add quite a bit of water. Later he found out aunt Ula was drinking the juice of the bean pot.
