m. Elizabeth Hinksman  m. 1652 Marshfield, MA  b. 1633
d. 26 Jun 1693 Middleboro, MA      [d/o Edmond Hinksman ]
 

George Vaughan was born in England or Wales about 1625-27. He deposed in 1650 aged 23 and was aged 25 in 1652. In 1650 he was of Essex Co., Mass. and testified concerning the last will and testament of Honor Rolfe. She left a nuncupative will to which he and Henry Lakin of Charlestown swore (Essex Co. Probate printed records 1. 137). It seems quite possible that he was a younger brother of William Vaughan of Portsmouth, N.H., who married Margaret Cutts. There was an earlier George Vaughan who Came to the colonies in 1631 but returned to England. -- "It is suggested that George and William were his sons and that possibly John of Rhode Island was of the same family" (Mrs. Mary L. Holman in American Genealogist. Vol. 23-24 P. 24-31). He appears in Marsfield, Mass. in 1652 when he married Elizabeth Hinksman daughter of Edmond. (Mayflower Descendants Mag. Vol. 2, P.4-- Marshfield Vital Statistics-- P. 1 New England Gen. Register Vol. 16, P. 347).  There his first five children were born and baptized in the Second Church of Scituate -- now the First Unitarian of Norwell, Mass. On June 5, 1658 he was sued by John Sutton for detaining a bill. He was fined in Marshfield on Oct. 21, 1666 for not attending public service. (colony records) On March 1663/4, he sued William Shurtleff for debt and won. July 5, 1699 he is allowed to keep an Inn or "Ordinary" for the entertainment of strangers at Middlebury. (Court order, Plymouth Col. Rec. 5.24.)    Two more Children, George and Mercy were born to them in Middleboro -- both mentioned in his will, but since many Middleboro Records were destroyed in King Philips War in 1675*, they were not recorded. Much of the data we have was compiled from Bible records, documents preserved by citizens and from Plymouth Church Records of which Middleboro was at first part. He was a Freeman among the list of residents in 1663 in Middleboro, owned much land, was a town constable 1 June 1675, was in the garrison at the outbreak of King Philip's War. He and Many of his descendants lived in that part of Middleboro known as the Wauppaunucket. There still is a Vaughan Street in that section. 1n 1677 he purchased William Hoskin's share in 26 mens purchase -- passed to Joseph in 1690. (Mayflower Descendants Mag. Vol. 2, P. 159, Vol 10, P. 1-9,101.)   See Weston's History of Middle- boro. He died 20 October 1694 in his 73rd yr. and is burrued in Nemasket Hill Cemetery beside his wife Elizabeth who died 26 June 1693 in her 60th year. Hers is the oldest stone in the cemetery. The inscription is still legible.  His will dated June 30, 1694 was proved 10 Nov. 1694. The Inventory was taken by Samuel Wood and John Bennett. His property ammounted to L-43, 8-s, 4-p-some over $2,000 in those days.

Will of George Vaughan:

Following the usual preamble, it states--
1. "I do bequeath to my son, Daniel Vaughan, the lot of land which he now lives on with 1/2 my undivided meddow to him and his heirs etc.
2. To my son, George Vaughan, I do give a 20 acre lot lying at ye head of ye lot of John Cob. with 3 acres and a half of the meddow lying in the meddow, commonly calles the lower meddow, and an interest in all my undivided upland, also my best bed with 2 sheets, a coverlid, a rugge and one blanket, two pillows with pillow-beers, a bolster and curtains--to him and his heirs etc.
3. To my daughter, Mary Washburn, I do give ten acres of land lying where my house now stands that I now live in with a bed and a rugge.
4. All my upland and meddow except what is afore mentioned I do give my son, Joseph Vaughan.
5. To my daughter, Elizabeth Howland, I give my biggest brass kettle.
6. To my daughter, Mercy Due, I do give a bed and bolster.
The rest of my estate I do give to my children (my debts and necessary charges paid first) equally to be divided among them except that my son George Vaughan shal have a doubl share of all my iron and pewter vessels of my household stuff -- I appiont my eldest son, Joseph's custody till he be settled.




     He was a man of considerable education-- for he kept a diary or record book dated Oct. 16, 1687 -- a photostat of the frontispiece the author (A.V.W.) possesses. The book is partly written in Latin -- containes many mathematical calculations and is one in exquisite penmanship. This book was passed from eldest son --
or grandson -- and containes this inscription.

    "Daniel Vaughan, his book, givento him by his honored grand- father Daniel Vaughan, 1788. James Vaughan his book given him by his father, Daniel, 1844.  Volney Vaughan, his book given him by his father Aug. 1882."

Also in the book --
"Daniel Vaughan, March ye 22, 1757. This year I am 44 years of age and I was born Oct. ye 29, 1712.O.S."




  *King Philip's War


    In New England, the first of two Indian wars was fought against the Pequot, a powerful Mohegan clan treated by the English as a threat.  Urged on by Boston Preachers and using a trumped-up murder charge as a  pretext, the Puritans declared all-out war on the Pequot in 1637.
    It was not a war fought by the chivalrous standards of European engagement. The Puritans sacked and burned Indian villages by night.
     Aided by loyal Naragansett and Mohegan forces, the colonial equivalent  of a search-and-destroy team entered a stockaded Pequot town near the Mystic River, slaughtered its 600 inhabitants, and burned the village.  In the only other confrontation of the war, a group of Pequots was trapped. The men were killed, the boys sold to slavers, and the women and girls kept by the Puritans as slaves. As a tribe, the Pequot was practically exterminated.
    The English maintained peace for nearly forty years thanks to their old allies, Massasoit's Wampanog-saviors of the Pilgrims-and the Naragansett led by Canonicus (who had sheltered Roger Williams after he was bannished from Boston). When these two chiefs died, the English were ready to complete the subjugation of the New England Indians. But Massasoit's son Metacom, called King Phillip by the English for his adoption of European dress and customs, struck back.
     The fighting took place in the summer of 1676, and for the colonists it wasn's as easy as the Pequot battles had been. The combat was the fiercest in New England history, and far bloodier than much of the fighting during the Revolution. Metacom's Indians were equipped with guns and armor acquired through trade, and he was an aggressive leader. The outcome of this war was not assured, particularly in the early going. But the colonists had too much on their side: superior numbers-including 500 Mohegan gunmen, blood rivals of the Wampanoag  and devastating battle tactics, including a return to the wholesale massacre of noncombatants.
King Phillip was ultimately killed, his head displayed on a pole.
His wife and son, the grandson of the chief who had saved the Pilgrim, was sold into slavery in the West Indies. an act of mercy according to the leading Puritan clerics.

BIO:Ensign Joseph, was a freeman in 1688 and active in the affairs of the colony. He was selectman for 27 years between 1689-1722, commissioned Ensign of local military company in 1706 a Lieutenant in 1712, Captain 1716. He not only was a proprietor of Middleboro but served as agent  for the proprietors. His first deed was for the proprietors. (Am. Genealogist Vol. 23, P. 27) He purchased in 1690 the share of Wm. Hodskins in the 26 men's purchase and was one of the original proprietors of the 16 shilling purchase Lot, No. 5, Nov 21, 1679. The author has a photostatic copy of his commission as Ensign in "the company foote" granted by Wm. Stoughton, Lieut. Gov. of Mass. on 5 Aug. 1706. He was Capt of the first Co. in Middleboro, 1716. His will proved 15 March 1733/4-a very long one, may be foundin the Am. Genealogist Vol. 23-24, P. 29-35. It mentions his sons Jabez, George, and John and his daughters Betty Cobb, Mary Marriner, and Joanna Sampson--which proves that Joanna Sampson was living 1n 1733/4. His sons Jabez and George were the executers.

Jabez and Lois' first four children were born in Middleboro, migrating thence to Lyme, N.H. where two more were born and then to Pomfret, VT where two more were born.  He was of Lyme, when he bought of John Paddock on the 1st of May 1777 for F50, Lot No. 73, 80 acres in Pomfret, Vermont. (Vial’s history of Pomfret, Vt. p. 590, p. 130,176).  He probably settled in Pomfret, VT at once. Within two years he had won the respect of his townsmen and was elected selectman, and frequently held office until 1791 when he sold his farm, as his family was broken up. Leaving his wife in the home of John Paddock, his son-in-law, he took his three youngest sons, Jabez, Ebenezer, and Jonah and joined a company from Middleboro and the Vinyard, to Maine. His daughter Lois come at some time, for her marriage to Nehemiah Cobb is recorded in Industry, Maine. There in New Vinyard, they are recorded in 1800 . Vail's History is in error in stating that his father's name was Jabez, also that he died in his 100th year. His father Daniel, died in his 100th year. His widow died 27 OCT. 1831 aged 89.  Both Jabez and John Paddock were great bear hunters. H.H. Vail's -- History of Pomfret. Jabez served in several engagements in the Revolution. He was buried in the old cemetery on the County Road, now overgrown and long since abandoned.  His children moved the grave and stone, marked J.V. aged 77, from there to the new cemetery at The Notch and in 1935 his descendants erected a marker there to the memory of him and his wife Lois. New Vinyard was first called Vaughan's Mills.
