Shirley, I checked my book of marriage and Death notices from the Charleston Observer for your surname. It's listed those from 1827 to 1845 so it's pretty limited and no name showed up. Sorry it didn't help. But it does tell you where information won't be. [email protected] wrote:My research on the Vaugh(a)s in South Carolina have peaked my interest in Caroline Co., VA. There are three Rev War Soldiers of main interest. 1. JOEL VAUGHAN - On 1790 Federal SC Census - moved on with daughter but also lived to be over 104l d. MS - REV WAR "of Caroline Co., VA." on pension application. 2. THOMAS VAUGHAH - Drew pension in Spartanburg Co., SC - "of Caroline Co., VA." 3. JOHN VAUGHAN - Drew pension in Spartanburg Co., SC - very little data on pension application so don't know if from Caroline Co., VA, or not. Thomas and John are on the 1840 Spartanburg Federal Census and listed as Rev War Soldiers. All three given names run through my family so I'm really stumped and have hit my brick wall. Can anyone please help me?
