History of Bourbon, Scott, Harrison and Nicholas Counties, Kentucky, ed.
by William Henry Perrin,  O. L. Baskin & Co., Chicago, 1882.  p. 783.
[Nicholas County]  [Ellisville Precinct]

THOMAS VAUGHN, farmer, P. O. Blue Licks, was born in Lewis County, Ky., November 10,
1822, son of Thomas and Elizabeth (McDaniel) Vaughn. Thomas Vaughn, senior, came from
Pennsylvania at an early day and settled in Lewis County, Ky., where he passed through
all the hardships incident to the life of the early pioneer, and where he prospered
and died.  He was the father of ten children, eight of whom are living.  Our subject
received the education afforded by the schools of his native county, and began life as
a farmer, in which occupation he is engaged at present, owning a snug farm of ninety-
eight acres.  April 2, 1846, he was married in Nicholas County, to Elizabeth Wilson,
born in March 1828, daughter of Thomas and Catharine (Croce) Wilson, of Virginia.  His
wife is a member of the Christian Church at Stony Creek, and he is a Republican, and a
member of Blue Lick Lodge.
