ODDS AND ENDS
The next time you are at Mount Vernon, home of George and Martha Washington, notice the splendid marble mantelpiece provided to Washington by his great admirer SAMEUL VAUGHAN. He also gave General Washington a suite of highly decorated Worcester vases
A SPECIAL NOTE TO THE DESCENDANTS OF THOMAS VAUGHAN AND WIFE LEAH MCCARTY:
I have established membership in the Daughters of the Revolution through the record of Capt. ROBERT KYuE. CAPT. KYLE was the grand-father of LEAH MCCARTY, whose parents were RACHEL KYLE and WILLIAM MCCARTY. If you are interested in having a copy of the material used to prove this line, please contact me. (Verna Banes).
ROBERT YOUNG VAUGHAN, son of THOMAS and LEAH married MARTHA ANGELINE TRIPLETT. I have records on the TRIPLETT family dating back to 1650 England. Also a book written by Mrs. HORTENSE E. ABBOTT "Tripping Down the Triplett Path" details extensive research on this family* Write me for further details.
Family tradition indicates that the father of THOMAS VAUGHAN was JAMES, but we have no definite proof of this—or of which JAMES. One source states: "Thomas's father, JAMES VAUGHAN, and two of his brothers, were Virginians, and one became a physician of note." Can anyone help prove "which" JAMES this was? Membership in the DAR and other organizations cannot be established on the VAUGHAN line until this proof is verified.
