    Note
    • John Vaughan, Jr. R-1 the eldest son, left a Witl executed in 1705 and probated at Newport in January 1710/11. This Will is preserved at the Newport Historical Society with the old town records. The Will shows one son John and two grandsons, John and Daniel. This Will may be new to some genealogists in the Vaughan family. The two deeds dated July 21, 1709 are on record at Portsmouth, R.l. These two deeds prove conclusevely that it was John Vaughan, Jr. (1644-1710) who married Mary Mott daughter of A.dam Mott, Jr. There have been some genealogists who have previously concluded that David Vaughan (1646-1678) (brother of John Vaughan, Jr.) was the one who married Mary Mott. Subsequent deeds copied and on file prove this to be the John Vaughan who settled in Lebanon, Conn. ca 1730 with his son Daniel. It is my understanding that some genealogists have concluded it was John Vaughan born 1679 son of Daniel and Susannah (Ginney) Vaughan who settled at Lebanon. I am undecided as to whether John Vaughan (son of John Vaughan, Jr.) married Marcy Millard of Rehoboth, Mass. or Mary Lawton. I feel sure he married one or the other and that his cousin mentioned above, John Vaughan son of Daniel, married one of these two girls. The vast number of descendants which accumulate from John Vaughan, J r., eldest son of John &Gillian, are derived particularly through the large family of John Vaughan (1732-1820). The latter was a son of Daniel and Martha (Throop) Vaughan and had thirteen children.
