Dear Bertha ,
My ancestor is Absolom's brother John , born Jan 19,1777 , and married to Elizabeth Bewnnett in 1803 in Staunton by Monmouth. (I'm assuming that your Absolom was born in Nov 22 1772 , to Richard Vaughan and his wife Betty Gagg ! I know that there are 2 more Absoloms in the nexr generations.) Brother John is my g-g-g-grandfather.

If you have more info on Absolom & John's family and ancestors , I'd love it !I live in Canada . My grandfather came here in the early 1900s to farm the Prairies.My father has been back to Ruardean a number of times and keeps up a correspondence with his cousins in the area.Is part of your family still in the area ?

Good to meet you.Thanks,
Barb
