I am looking for information on my g-g-g-grandparents George VAUGHN and Angelina TOWNSEND. I don't have any information on George except that he married Angelina 19 March 1857 in Vinton Co. I believe that Angelina is the daughter of Allen TOWNSEND and Sarah MCCASKY/MCCLOSKEY who resided in Meigs Co. There is an Allen and Sarah TOWNSEND in the 1850 census living in Columbia Twp., Meigs Co., Ohio with a daughter named Angelina who is 15 years old. She would have been born about 1835/36 and she died 1913 in Vinton Co., and is buried in Bowen Cemetery. Angelina married three times, 1st to George VAUGHN, and they had two children, William VAUGHN b. abt. 1858; and Daniel Francis VAUGHN b. Nov. 1860. I believe William may have married Sessilia PERRY and lived in Vinton Twp., Vinton Co., Ohio in the 1860 census. They had a young daughter named Angeline, which I believe could be named after his mother. Daniel Francis VAUGHN is my g-g-grandfather. He married Amanda Margaret BOWEN 5 April 1884 in Vinton Co. Angelina married 2nd to Hiram D. Black 31 Dec 1862 in Vinton Co. He died in 1864, I believe in the Civil War as he died in Murfreesboro, TN. They had one child, Margaret Catherine BLACK, b. abt 1863. She married Stephen Arnold BOWEN. Angelina married 3rd to George Samuel LIGHTFOOT 29 Sept. 1870 in Meigs Co., Ohio. They had at least 2 children, George Wilson LIGHTFOOT and James Howard LIGHTFOOT. I would be most grateful for any information on the above individuals, especially George VAUGHN, if any one knows his fate or who his parents were. I can't locate George and Angelina in the 1860 census, and don't know when or if George died. Thank you! Polly L. Rizer

Polly, well you have added some first names for me, in that I showed only the last names of her three husbands. I believe that you are correct, in that she is the daughter of Allen and Sara Townsend, The info I have on her, came from Fred Townsend, on the Townsend list. Her parents had twin boys, Daniel and Martin, with Martin making Allen my ggg grandfather.
