William Henry Vaughan (General)

Please may I call upon the Forest of Dean Researchers to help me.

My Great Grandfather was William Henry Vaughan born 1859 The 1901
Census shows him living in Commercial Street East Dean aged 42 carrying on the trade of Butcher. The census shows him with his wife Evan aged 32 and daughters Caroline aged 5 and Fanny aged 15.

Fanny Louisa Vaughan is my Grandmother. She was born in Illionis USA.

I cannot seem to find a Birth for William Henry, nor can I find anything for Fanny Louisa Vaughan (apart from the marriage to my Grandfather Frank Burt) I have this certificate. I have investigated and received a reply from America saying no records available.

My second question is - I have seen the article of the Vaughans and Pluds Court is there anything I can read to give me more background and would my Grandfather have had anything to do with this area of the Forest.

Any suggestions etc would be appreciated.

Barbara.
