Miscellaneous Queries

Date: Sat, 22 May 1999     From:  Karen  [email protected]

I am trying to locate information on my great grandfather, John Henry Vaughn, born around 1855 near Arkansas or KY. I have a picture of him on a "wanted" poster. Two of his sons were
wanted also, one died in prison and one was shot by the police near Shreveport, LA.

John Henry Vaughn was married to Mary Jane Thomas from near Cassville, MO.
Their children were:

Walter, Fred, Sam Effie, Rosie, Katie (my grandmother), John Wesley, Lessie, Jessie, May, Johnny, Jencie and Homer.

If you have any information, please let me know. He was rumoured to have run with Frank James.

My great-great-grandmother was Martha Vaughn who was born in Burke County, North Carolina, where she married her husband James L Bailey in 1845. She had a brother named Matthew. After moving through Union County, Georgia, both families were in Benton County, Arkansas, by the time of the 1860 census.

Matthew later served in the 1st Arkansas Cavalry during the Civil War, which was a Union regiment.
