    1. Angus VAUGHN
    2. This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: VAUGHN, PERRY, MYRICK, KELLEGAN Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/CCC.2ACE/2973 Message Board Post: I am looking for any info on Angus VAUGHN who was in the 1930 Census of Burley, Kitsap County. He was with his wife Jacksa. In the 1920 census of Burley they are there also. But this time the wife's name is spelled Jaxa. They have a daughter Jaxa. In both Census records Angus is described as being born in NOVA SCOTIA. I am trying to prove that he is the same Angus VAUGHNN who was born 10 June 1867 in Steam Mill Village Nova Scotia, the son of John William VAUGHAN and Dorcas GREENLAW The Angus I am seeking left Nova Scotia to never return and family members say he died somewhere in Washington State. He is the brother of my husband's grandfather. I am almost positive the Angus VAUGHN in the 1920 and 1930 census of Burley is the same one. I find on Ancestry.com an index of a marriage in Victoria BC of Angus Vaughn and Jaxa Myrick in 1910. I am assuming that this is the same couple in the above 2 census records. In 1920 the daughter Jaxa is listed as 14. She would have been born about 4 years before the marrige of Angus and Jaxa. I see in World Tree a Jaxa Myrick having a relationship (either married and divorced or never married) with George Washington Perry. Out of this marriage a child Viola Myrick Perry is born who was raised by Jaxa's parents. Again I am assuming this is the same Jaxa who married Angus Vaughn. I also see that a Jaxa Perry married in 1894 in Gem Idaho to an Edward Kellegan. Again I am making the assumption that this is Jaxa Myrick who was married (or not) to George Perry and who later married Angus Vaughn. The 1920 census of Burley says the 14 year old Jaxa Vaughn was born in California. Does this ring any bells with anyone?
