Will

Bristol Parish

Daughters: Susannah Hermon, Nancy Harrison, Elizabeth Tarpley, Polly C. Vaughan, Gency Vaughan.

Executors: John Crawford, John Anderson, Henry Rees.

Witnesses: None. John Blick swears to handwriting.

Note: Deed Book 24, page 425 Mecklenburg County shows that Robert Williamson died leaving widow Polly. They had a daughter Elizabeth that married [Doctor Spencer] Vaughan. Elizabeth and Doctor Spencer Vaughan had a son Jeremiah and a daughter Bethia Saylor Vaughan who married Warner Wortham. Accordingly, one wife of Spencer C Vaughan is known with a certainty. Also Jeremiah is proven as a son of Spencer C. The "C" stands for Crawford (See Mecklenburg Co D.B. 9, p. 152). This hints that David Vaughan, father of Dr. Spencer married Winnefred Crawford. Dr. Vaughan also had a son Spencer Jr. per Mecklenburg Co. Personal Tax Digest 1815-1816. Jane married Peter G. Vaughan in Mecklenburg County. They also had a son named Spencer C. Vaughan.
