Young, John Shough, John Ball, Nicholas Beckner, Absolom Kyle; Justices of the Peace Commissioned and assigned to hold the County Court in said county and state.An inventory of the personal property of Wilson Vaughan, dec'd, sold by Nancy Vaughan, Administratrix, was returned to court by the said Administratrix which was received and ordered to be recorded.1840 Nancy Vaughan is found in 1840 census (Hawkins Co) living byLevi, with her children, with James on the other side of Levi. Wilsonis apparently deceased by then.1842 James Bowlin sells property and cites "the line of the heirs of Wilson Vaughan" to the line of Thomas Rains.Squire's Ledger for School Enrollment shows Nancy has enrolled her children inschool thru 1844. There are pages missing, but it appears that Nancy left Hawkins Coat that time for KY. Levi probably has died by then. Mary, Nancy's mother, left for KY withJames Bowlin so that may have been the reason Nancy left, but we are unable to find herlisted in an 1850 census.1849 Stokley left Fayette Co KY after having worked as a carpenter on Henry Clay's home.1850 Stokely married Amanda Sullivan, daughter of William Sullivan and Anna Rogers on July 26, 1850.

(Wesley, her son, goes to Civil War)1870 Nancy Bowlin Vaughan/n in 1870, age 65, found living in Jackson Co IN with son Wesley Vaughn and his family.1880 Nancy Bowlin Vaughan/n is living with her son, Wesley and his family in Lawrence Co IN. She is 75 years of age. She indicates on the census report that she was born in TN and her parents were born in KY.It is probable that Nancy died and is buried in Lawrence Co IN after 1880 and before 1882,however, we have yet to find any records of her death and where she probably is buried. Death records in Indiana were not kept before 1882This Indenture made and Entered into this 25 day of Oct. AD 183

Mary Francis Henderson, VaughanA page copied was copied about the settlers of Taney County. One was of Mary Francis Henderson, who married George Washington "Uncle Bud" Vaughan in Barry County, Missouri. She was said to have been born in the town of Roaring River, this no longer exists. Family stories say her mother (name never given) was 1/2 Cherokee and was on the Trail of Tears. As Barry County borders Taney one wonders if her mother might have been one of these Cherokee women. I think Mary's parents were Thomas Henderson and Nancy ____. Nancy would have been the 1/2 Cherokee woman. The 1850 census shows her being born in North Carolina. Thomas was shown as born in Tennessee. They lived in Searcy County, Arkansas in 1850, Tomahawk Township. In 1860 they lived in Stone County, Missouri, but suspecting, between these two censuses they lived in Barry County. (Photo tin-type, of Sarah Harp (Henley)

...............................................................Another wrote:*About the book in TURNBOW'S TALES OF THE OARKS BIOGRAPHICAL STORIES STORIES. On page 23 he gives the names of a few of the early day people who lived on Crooked Creek, Marion Co., Ark. Bleuf Milum, Jimmy Magness, Noah ennette, Mose Rowlet, Joel King, Bill Wood, Eli Young, Jake Baughman, Luke Marler, Sam Harp, Nimrod Teaf, John Tabor, Herrod Coker, Demps Coker, Jimmie Shelton, Joel Sharp, and George Wood, Jimmy Mayberry. Mathew Harp is his mother was Judith(Judy) Brown and they are connected to the Blackwell Family of Taney Co.,& Hickory Co., Mo.Most of the early founders and settlers in Taney Co., were Cherokee woman married to white men and soldiers. They were from McMinn Co., Tenn. and traveled the "Trail of Tears". ---- Original Message -----Subject: Harp FamilyDo you have any approximate dates of birth for Sam & Matt Harp?Ans: I also have Matt Harp marring Judith Brown, Protem,Taney Co., Mo. no dates.----- Original Message -----Subject: "Within My Ozark Valley"A Sam Harp , Crooked Creek in Marion Co., Ark. This area is at the Ark. & Mo. border, White River. .................................................
*"Within My Ozark Valley". Has any one seen this bk.? William Vaughan, an adventurer from Wales (descendant of Thomas & Henry Vaughan) became a Indian trader. William Vaughan married a Cherokee maiden by the name of
Fair-A- Bee-Lunah in the Cherokee Territory of Tennessee. Willian Vaughan and his son-in-law Philip Harp. They were in Eureka Springs, Ark. The great grandmother was Stone. Granny Molly Vaughan Stone, 1892. It speaks of the Civil War.The Vaughans & Harps have left a string of such houses to blaze the trail which they open all the way from Tennessee into the Ozarks. The towns spoken of were Cassville,, Mo.. Springfield, Mo. (Dr. Benjamin Franklin Pickley), Ft. Smith (then called Belle Point) Boston Mountains, Eureka Springs, Carrol, Madison and Newton Co., Ark. The more agricultural- minded Vaughans remained in Washington Co., Ark., where Samuel Vaughan, son of William, was one of the three commissioners who chose the site of Fayetteville, Ark. and helped survey it. He named the town for his home town, Fayetteville, Tenn. One can undestand the different spelling of Vaughan or Vaughn. Harps vs
Erps, Earps. This book was written by CORA PINKLEY CALL, 1956. Many question some of the correctness of issues in the book. So do check everything out by other sources.
.................................Subject: Samuel and Daniel Vaughan
They lived around the Hawkins and Hancock Counties area -- there wasn't a Hancock County when they left Hawkins sometime after 1812, but just where they lived is still being debated. Most feel it was somewhere else in Tennessee, and very likely it was Warren and White Counties, Tennessee. There are grants in both counties for a Samuel and Daniel Vaughan and some indication that their sister Mary and her husband lived there:
Daniel: In Warren County, Tennessee in 1812, on a tax list, appears the name Daniel Vaughan, along with a David Vaughan. He apparently received land in White County, Tennessee, Grant # 5585 as an assignee of John C. McLemore, 3 acres lying in White County in the third District of Cane Creek of main Caney Fork including the house and improvements formerly occupied by John Medkiff, on May 23, 1814. In Deed Book F., page 73, he sold to John Simmons, both of White County, for $215, the land mentioned in the grant, on September 18, 1815. He appeared on the White County tax lists for 1815 and 1816.
Samuel: In Warren County, Tennessee, Grant # 5670, State of Tennessee to Samuel Vaughn, assignee of Peter Turney, 20 acres lying Warren County in the third District on the waters of Rocky River, June 4, 1814. Is this our Samuel?? Mary: Taken from her NOTES section: RECORDS ON VAUGHAN CONNECTION: On a Evans family reunion a few years back, and someone who attended gave a copy of the records that were circulated that day, and sent it to me, and it shows the following data:
MARY VAUGHAN, daughter of WILLIAM VAUGHAN, born 1779, Virginia. MARY VAUGHAN married JAMES EVANS - September 14, 1802, Hawkins County,Tennessee (Mary stated she was married in the home of her father, WILLIAM VAUGHAN) Their first son, JESSE EVANS, was born in 1803, Hawkins County,Tennessee, and Jesse's fifth child FERIBY EVANS was born in 1840. James Evans was listed near William Vaughan, Sr., John Vaughan, and William Vaughan, Jr. on the 1812 Tax Lists of Hawkins County,Tennessee. All appeared on the list taken by Wm. Nichols.
After his discharge from the War of 1812, James and Mary (Vaughan) Evans moved to White County, Tennessee, with her parents, where in 1816, James Evans witnessed an Indenture for WILLIAM VAUGHAN. James Evans died on 28 July 1820, in Fentress County, Tennessee, and hiswidow MARY EVANS continued on the Census of White and Van Burencounties, Tennessee. The Evans' were back and forth between what are now Van Buren (formerly White) and Fentress counties, TN. Mary died inAugust of 1873, Fentress County, Tennessee.The ads are not an endorsement of this blog's author

E-mail No. 1 Vaughan, Callicot, RollerEmail of Vaughan Line No. 1 (All is quoted)"
http://members.tripod.com/~Hiestand/roller/JOHANNES.HTM that shows John's ancestry. It lists Rebecca as Rebecca Falin Vaughan and gives her birth date as June 24th, 1801, which compares to what Nancy (Callicott) Vaughan gave for her daughter "Rebechah G. was born June the 24 day 1802" As I mentioned last week, in her father's day book, her name is shown as: Rebechah Gruer was born June the 24 day 1802 with the "2" in 1802 written over an originally recorded "1". So it is very likely that Rebeccah did not know exactly when she was born.The problem of course is that a Rebechah or Rebecca Gruer Vaughan sounds pretty different then a Rebecca Falin Vaughan. I am 100% certain the two women are the same person, but how did the name Falin come into the story. And why was Rebecca's middle name Gruer. What follows is a transcript of Benjamin Vaughan's affidavit for his mother Nancy (Callicott) Vaughan's Revolutionary War pension application. Ben was one of the middle born children of John and Nancy, and he gives in 1858 a bit of information on where his sister Rebecca lived:State of Tennessee county of Hancock.Be it remembered that on this 28 day of May AD 1858 formally appeared before me a Justice of the Peace in and for the county aforementioned Benjamin Vaughn aged about 54 years, after being by me duly-sworn according to you both on his oath depose and say that he will be fifty four years of age on the 4th day of November in 1858 to the best of his knowledge information and belief. He further certifies that the enclosed record of my father. John & Nancy Vaughn is the record which was found knowing my fathers old paper and it has ever since remained to my possession and as to the correctness of which I certify that I can recollect the birth of Samuel, Martha & George W. Vaughn which part of the record I certify from my resolution and from circumstances is correct and that I certify that James, Polly. Beverly. Rebeky Vaughn are all four elder than me and that the last account I had of James he was in the State of Texas and that the last account I had of Beverly he was in the State of Arkansas and that Polly lives in Hawkins County in the State of Tennessee. Rebecky lives in the State of MO the last account, and that Nancy, Mahaly & John are all three younger than me but I cannot recollect the dates of their births and that Nancy & John lives in this county and that Mahaly is dead and that Samuel resides in the county and that the last account of George is he lived near Nashville Tennessee and that Martha lives in Knox County in the Stale of Tennessee and that my father John Vaughan died on the 14 day of July 1842 and that at his death he left a will in which I certify he willed to me John & Samuel Vaughn the tract of land where and now live and where on Samuel now lives that they paid him after the death of their said father $100. for his part of said tract of land and that his other lands and Tenements was divided amongst the other heirs and that I further certify that I know of know other record of the dates and births of said heirs or any other dates I recorded after the marriage if any such record either private or public he does not know any thing of them, and I further certify that after the Act of 1832 I heard my father frequently speak of his claim that he said that he would not trouble himself about it that he did not need it and that inSeveral occasions I have heard him in conversation with one Samuel Doloson who is no more and who runs a van, drinking character and who applied for pensionDoloson, could obtain his pension and could get what was due to him JohnVaughn that he, Doloson. would have money enough to pay for his drinking and thatDoloson never received a pension ?In witness I do here unto set my hand and seal the day and year.Benjamin*1858 Rebecca was living in Missouri, and this, plus her father's will, shown below, pretty much settles that the Rebecca Roller in Barry County, MO., was the same as John and Nancy's daughter:WILL OF JOHN VAUGHANPage 474 Dated: Dec. 27, 1841Proven: Aug. Term 1842I, John Vaughan of the County of Hawkins and State of Tennessee, do make this my last Will & Testament hereby revoking and making void all former wills by me heretofore made.First. My will and desire is that all my just debts be paid out of any money that I may die possessed of, or that may first come into the hands of my Executors. Second. My will and desire is that my son George Washington, for and in consideration of the bequests hereinafter made to him do keep and support my wife Nancy Vaughan during her natural life.Third. I do give and bequeath unto my sons Samuel N. Vaughan and Benjamin Vaughan during their natural lives and then to their lawful heirs forever all my lands on the north side of Clinch Mountain, it being about 110 acres and 10 acres on the south side to copper ridge whereon the said Samuel N. Vaughan now lives, to be equally divided between them according to quality.Fourth. I do will and direct that the above named Samuel N. and Benjamin Vaughan for and in consideration of the above bequest shall within 12 months after my death jointly pay unto my son John Vaughan $100.00.Fifth. I give and bequeath unto my son George Washington Vaughan all my land whereon I now live and joining it being about 170 acres, together with all my personal estate that I may die possessed of or entitled to, and all money and debts due me except so much as may be necessary to supply the bequests made in this will in money.Sixth. Whereas my sons Beverly Vaughan and James L. Vaughan has gone to parts unknown, if they should return within two years after my death, I do give and bequeath to them one dollar each.Seventh. I do give and bequeath unto the heirs of my daughter Mahala Dickerd one dollar. Eighth. I do give and bequeath unto my daughter Mary Gilliam one dollar.Ninth. I do give and bequeath unto my daughter Rebecca Roller $1.00.Tenth. I do give and bequeath unto my daughter Nancy Hickman $1.00.Eleventh. I do give and bequeath unto my daughter Martha Davis $1.00.And for the performance and execution of this my last will, I do appoint Robert W. Kinkead my Executor. In testimony whereof I have here unto set my hand and seal. This 27th day of December, 1841.John x Vaughan (seal)(his mark)In presence of: William Carmack, James T. Brice, William E. Carmack."" 1841, Rebecca had married John Roller and by 1858 they lived in Missouri. So again, the question presents itself - where does the name FALIN come from? And, what about her middle name, GRUER? I'm really beginning to wonder if maybe John and Nancy had adopted several children either from different families, or else took in the children of one family. It could be that James (who married Martha Vaughan, William and Fereby's daughter) and Rebecca and maybe several others of their children were not biologically theirs. That would explain why my Ben Vaughan (named, no doubt for the Benjamin Vaughan who made the affidavit for Nancy, the elder Ben would have been my Ben's uncle) had Y-DNA that didn't match John and William's Y-DNA. Maybe it was his father, James, who, along with Rebecca, were adopted. Rebecca is the only child in John's day book with a second name attached, and James, the oldest child, does not have any last name listed in the book. Beverly was listed as "Beverly Callicott" (his mother's father's name), but the name was crossed out and "Beverly Vaughan" was entered in it's place. So it could be that Beverly, James and Rebecca were all not John's children.At the website I mentioned above, it shows how many of the Rollers went to the area around what is now McDonald County, Missouri and Benton County, Arkansas. The two counties border each other and a ridge around Gateway, Missouri is named "Roller Ridge" after them. McDonald county borders Barry County, where John and Rebecca Roller moved, and of course, Benton County borders Madison County, AR., so they were only a short distance from the family of William and Fereby.The question is, where were John and Rebecca in 1850? We know they were married by 1841, so they should show up somewhere. There is a John Roller on the 1850 Barry County, MO. census, but it is the father of the John that married Rebecca, according to the Roller web site. His wife was Mary Tutwiler and both of them were in Barry County, MO., living with an Adam Roller, probably a grandson. According to the site, John was there since 1830. I wonder if John and Rebecca were in Barry County early, or if they moved there later? They were not there in 1850, apparently. There are really no solid leads on them in 1850. Anyway, keep searching for some clues on John and Rebecca, as I feel if we locate some of John and Nancy's children in the 19th century, we might clear up some other mysteries of this family."

Email: Hello Cousins...I think I may have stumbled across something interesting and I need the groups help. I was browsing around FindaGrave.com and I saw this entry.
http://www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=gr&GRid=7947280We have always had in our tree that a REBECCA (REBECKAH) VAUGHN had married a JOHN ROLLER. I decided to focus today on this JOHN ROLLER and all I knew was Barry Co Missouri. In looking at this entry for him the dates are in the same range. I also got excited to see a REBECCA buried next to him there in the King Cemetery. The VAUGHN bible/day book that JOHN Vaughn b1762 VA...completed for his REVOLUTION PENSION lists all his Children and their birth dates.He lists a child named REBECKAH b. JUNE 24 1800 1801?

DNA Vaughan AncestorsY-DNA-
The mystery of William and Fereby Vaughan has intrigued descendants for over 100 years. Several books have been written on them and their descendants. This little booklet is meant to give a brief update on research into their ancestry.For those not familiar with William and Fereby, here is a very brief biography. Both were born about 1750, though personally believe Fereby was born several years afterwards. Family tradition says William was born in Wales and lived close to Tretower Castle. According to family tradition, he came to the USA sometime before 1773 and settled in Virginia.Fereby Benton was born in North Carolina. It could be possible that she was born in Tennessee when the state was still part of North Carolina. Family tradition says that she was part Cherokee, on her mother’s side. Her father, tradition says either married the daughter of a Cherokee Chief, or was himself a Chief. Her mother was said to have been a Fereby Looney or Luna, who died in childbirth with Fereby. She was obviously named for her mother.Around 1772 William Vaughan married Fereby Benton. Their oldest known child, Thomas, was born the following year. They lived in Russell County, Virginia, then moved to Hawkins County, Tennessee. After staying there several years, they moved again, to mid Tennessee and maybe Southeast Missouri, before coming to middle Arkansas around 1821. They traveled to Arkansas with at least two of their sons and their families and several daughters with their families. Tradition says they settled somewhere around Short Mountain Creek near Paris, Arkansas, just south of the Arkansas River. They didn’t stay here long, and then moved northwest to the Boston Mountains of Northwestern Arkansas. Cane Hill and Evansville are said to have been their homes and then, once the Cherokee Indians had been moved to Oklahoma, eastward to around Hindsville, Arkansas. A mountain bordering Washington and Madison Counties is named Vaughan Mountain and a valley to the east of the Mountain is where Hindsville is located. They lived with their children during these years. On land still owned by descendants, William and Fereby are said to have been buried, though no gravestones were placed over their graves. William died sometime in the late 1830s and Fereby died in May of 1850, for her death is listed on the 1850 Madison County Death Schedule. She is listed as having died at age 105, which is at least 7 years too old.Family Tradition: Since researching ancestors before 1850 is challenging due to a less abundance of records, much of our knowledge of William and Fereby comes from Family Tradition. One tradition is that William was a Longhunter who traveled in Colonial times with the likes of fellow Longhunters such as Daniel Boone, to the Ozark Mountains, years before he moved his family there. Another legend is that Fereby’s maternal grandfather was Chief John Looney. This is ridiculous, as Chief Looney was BORN AFTER Fereby.One could spend many hours going over the traditions that have been passed down, but for this booklet, only two will be examined. First, that Fereby was part Cherokee Indian and second, that William Vaughan had a brother named John who married Nancy Callicott. Both of these traditions were given new insight by DNA testing.DNATo understand how the DNA results work, you must have a basic knowledge of genetics.Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) is the chemical inside the center of all cells that carries the genetic instructions for making life. DNA molecules have two strands that wrap around one another and look like a twisted ladder. The “rungs” of the letter are called bases and there are four types of chemicals that make up all types of DNA. These are Adenine, Thymine, Cytosine and Guanine (or A,T, C and G). These chemicals are attracted to each other and Adenine always pairs with Thymine and Cytosine always pairs with Guanine. The sequence of these chemicals determines everything about an individual.Chromosomes are long packages of long segments of DNA contained within the nucleus of each cell. All humans have 23 pairs of Chromosomes. In 22 pairs, both sides or parts of each pair are identical, one each coming from the father and the mother. But the 23rd pair is different. In females, this pair has two chromosomes that are called “X”. In males, this chromosome has an “X” and a “Y” which are two very different chromosomes. These Chromosomes determine a person’s sex.MtDNAThere is another type of DNA that is different from nuclear DNA. It is called Mitochondria DNA ( or MtDNA for short ). MtDNA is DNA that acts as the engine of every cell in the human body. It is not part of the “regular” type of DNA and never is mixed during reproduction. MtDNA is passed down intact from a mother to a child of either sex. Men do not pass their mother’s MtDNA to their children. Since it is not mixed during reproduction, MtDNA can be thought of as a genetic fingerprint that can show a person’s mother, maternal grandmother, great grandmother, and so on back through your mother’s line.Y-Chromosome DNAY-Chromosomes (Y-DNA for short), as mentioned above, are the Chromosomes that only males have, which makes “maleness”. As they are passed down intact from father to son, they also can be thought of as a genetic fingerprint, that can show a person’s male ancestry.How can either MtDNA and Y-DNA show a genetic link if these two types of DNA never mix with other DNA? This is due to mutations.When MtDNA or Y-DNA sets up its genetic code, it follows patterns that it setup for itself. These patterns consist of repeating orders of chemical code in each section. For example, say in “Section A” on a strand of Y-DNA, the Chemicals form an ATCGATCGATCGATCGATCG code. This is ATCG repeated 5 times. If there was a mutation, one of the repeats might be taken out or another repeat added, and the value would become 4 or 6. Then this would become the DNA value for that section of genetic code. This mutated DNA would then be passed down to the man’s male children. These mutations in repeats are not harmful and don’t really change anything noticeable. They are also very uncommon and happen completely at random.Scientists have learned that all human beings alive on earth descend from two ancestors. They gave the names of these two people (not surprisingly) Genetic Adam and Eve. All the diversity of Y-DNA and MtDNA types today are the result of mutations over the years changing the number of repeats in a person’s code. Certain groups would become isolated from other groups and so different patterns of code would occur. Today, Scientists can tell approximately where a man’s father’s male ancestors lived and where a person’s mother’s female ancestors lived by looking at the type of Y-DNA and MtDNA.The identifiable physical location on a chromosome that scientists look at is called a Locus. There are many Loci in a DNA strand, and only a few Loci are looked at. Tests range from examining 12 loci to 37 loci. Each loci is given a value as a number, which shows the number of times a pattern of chemicals repeats itself.The rate of mutation of any specific locus of DNA varies. Some loci are more likely to mutate than other loci. The average of all the rates is .002 %. This rate is not without some debate among scientists. What this rate means is, on the average, any given marker has a .002 % chance of mutating (changing the number of repeats) in any generation. If I have a value of 12 in one loci and my son has a value of 13, then that loci (assuming I’m looking at Y-DNA) has mutated. Sometime the DNA mutates more than one number, such as going from 12 to 14 at one loci. This is very uncommon, however, and most of the time, a mutation is a simple one step mutation.The rate of mutation doesn’t sound very high and in fact, it isn’t high at all. But the more markers you look at, the more likely it will be that a person will have at least one mutation. When you multiply this by many generations, you greatly increase the odds. Also, when you are comparing two people that share a common ancestor over 200 years in the past, then you have twice the chance of a mutation from that common ancestor, as there are two different lines.As a result of several years of Y-DNA and MtDNA research, a growing database of test subjects has been organized. Patterns of code based on where a person lives has developed, showing that in limited populations, specific mutations are passed down due to the lack of contact with other populations of people.Using probability math, a percentage chance that a person shares a common ancestor with another person, and the number of generations (or less) that this occurred, has been calculated.If you test 12 markers and 10 of those 12 markers match another person’s markers, you have a 50% chance that the two of you share a common ancestor 61 generations back, a 90% you share one 122 generations back and 95% chance you share one 144 generations back. For a 11 out of 12 match, it is 50% for a common ancestor 37 generations back, 90% for one 85 generations back and 9%% that there was a common ancestor 10#=3 generations back. The numbers for an exact match of 12 out of 12 goes 50% of a common ancestor 14 generations ago, 90% chance this was 48 generations ago and 95% chance it was 62 generations ago.For 25 marker tests, a 23 out of 25 match means you and the one you were tested against have a 50 % chance that you share a common ancestor 28 generations ago, a 90% it was 56 generations ago and a 9%% chance it was 66 generations ago. 24 out of 25 matches show a 50% it was 17 generations ago, 90% it was 40 generations ago and 95% it was 66 generations ago. Remember, a generation means the length of time for a child to grow up and have children. Saying this is about 20 years, then 17 generations is about 340 years.Lastly (and most importantly for our Vaughan Y-DNA study), if you have tested two people and they match 25 out of 25 loci, there is a 95% chance these two people share a common ancestor 30 generations (about 600 years) ago, 90% it was only 23 generations ago (460 years) and a 50% chance it was only 7 generations (140 years) ago. As you can see, most people want to test more loci and a better match narrows down the number of generations.Results of this studyOur first test conducted was not on Y-DNA but on MtDNA from a member of our on-line Vaughan Pioneers Group, Kim Grabbard. Kim descended through her Mom’s, Mom’s, Mom’s, Mom’s, Mom’s, Mom’s, Mom from Fereby Benton. Our test was to see if Kim and thus Fereby’s MtDNA would show that Fereby’s mother was of Indian ancestry. Native Americans have specific types of MtDNA and if this type shown up in Kim, then Fereby would have been confirmed that she was part Cherokee. As all the family traditions of Fereby say her mother was the source of her Cherokee Indian blood, we knew that if this was true, then it should show up in her MtDNA. After waiting for the test results for 6 weeks, we learned that Fereby Benton’s mother had the most common type of MtDNA from Northern Europe (Haplotype H), so Fereby’s mother couldn’t have been a pure blood Cherokee and neither was Fereby. It only shown the lack of Indian blood in one of Kim and Fereby’s ancestor, it didn’t prove anything else. Fereby’s father or her father’s father could have been Indian and since MtDNA is passed down from mother to child, she wouldn’t receive any Indian MtDNA from him. MtDNA only shows one person’s ethnic type, but if Fereby’s mother had been 100% Cherokee, she would have passed down to Fereby a Native American Haplotype. If her mother was any degree less than 100% Indian, she could have passed down a European Haplotype, but realistically, it probably shows she wasn’t Indian at all, at least on her mother’s side. I state this due to the time frame involved. Fereby was born about 1750. Her mother would have been born no later than the mid 1730s. If her mother wasn’t at least half Indian, then the timeframe would make it more difficult for her to have an Indian ancestor, due to more limited intermarriage with the Cherokee Indians before the 1730s. However, if Fereby’s mother was half Indian – her mother a white woman and her father a Cherokee (or some other tribe), then Fereby’s mother would have received white MtDNA from her white mother and in turn passed it down to Fereby. So Fereby could have been a quarter Indian and still have white MtDNA.William and JohnIn 2004, we decided to try a test on a descendant of William Vaughan and a descendant of John Vaughan. John Vaughan is a name that pops up often when looking over William and Fereby’s ancestry. He first shows up as a Revolutionary War soldier, serving in the Maryland Artillery. He achieves the rank of Sergeant and after his discharge, moves to Virginia. It is in Charlotte County that he meets 14 year old Nancy Callicott. Though he is 15 years older than her, they fall in love and try to marry in October of 1792, but apparently her father would not allow it. So they wait until she turns 17 and they elope to Halifax County and are married there. Here they stay until 1798 when they move to Hawkins County, Tennessee. The land they buy in Hawkins County was near land owned by William and Fereby and years later as they are preparing to move west to central Tennessee, William sells land which is resold to John and Nancy. John and Nancy’s son James marries William and Fereby’s daughter Martha. James and Martha move west with William and Fereby and pass down a tradition that they (James and Martha) were
