DRUSILLA HOLMES, 3200 Ayres-Holmes Rd, Auburn. CA 95603 still needs to get a
"-•: -.' ;^''';S VAU6HAN and NANCY POPE who were married 1804, Goochland Co VA. She and
-">\ ><;C3NK£Y (see June 1985, p. 29) have shared data on GEN. JOHN CRAwFORD VAUGHN,
ixit there seems to be a generation missing between their tines. Anyone else have
facts about this connection?
Drusilla learned from the widow of MALCOLM HUDSON of his death 17 Mar 1987. Does
anyone know who is now directing the HUDSON FAMILY ASSOCIATION with which Malcolm
i<as associated for many years? He contributed much material to the VAUGHAN, ETC
NEWSLETTER because there are a number of Hudson-Vaughan connections.
In her aunt's things, Drusilla found an obituary on a CHARLES VAU6HN also known
as "JACK HUDSON" who died Dec 1935 in CA. She secured a death certificate and found
his father was CRAWFORD VAUGHN b. in KY; his mother was ELIZABETH BANNISTER.
Do these facts fit into anyone else's family line? Send me or DrusiUa a SASE and
an extra stamp for a copy.
