Her mother was on the Trail of Tears, but her name is unknown. Mary married George W. Vaughan in Barry County, Missouri on August 13, 1857 and they moved to Madison County, Arkansas where they lived the rest of their lives. I'm trying to find her parents' names. From census data, her parents were born in Tennessee. Any connection? Eddie Davis ecdavis@atlascomm.net
