Obituary notice in The Christian Index June 24, 1880

Alexander Vaughan died in Elbert County, Georgia on the 28th day of May, 1880 in
the ninety-sixth year of his age.  

Brother Vaughan married  Elizabeth David when he was a young man.  They were
pious members of Dove's Baptist Church of Christ, Elbert County, Georgia from
the time of connection until death.  Many years had our brother served as deacon
there while with his loved companion whose death preceded his own a few years. 
But the writer in visits to him to read, talk and pray still found him strong in
faith, giving glory to God and much resigned to His will.

He lived to know that the increase of his offspring had reached the fourth
generation so that he had great-great grandchildren while the whole increase had
reached between three and four hundred.  God grant to bless them all throughout
their generations on earth as will be most to His Honor and glory and most to
the temporal, spiritual and eternal good of ever living one!  Like a shock of
ripe grain he was carried into the upper garner of his dear Savior.

The funeral service was performed by I. H. Goss.

Submitter's notes:  Alexander Wilks Vaughan Sr. was the son of James Vaughan
and Susannah Wilkins of Mechlenburg, VA and late of Oglethorpe, GA
