Vaugh(a)n /Vaun marriage - Independent Chapel (General)

I can add a little more to the information provided by Tanith.

In 1902 William Henry Vaughan was trading as a butcher in Cinderford there is an entry in a commercial directory.

William's daughter Fanny (born USA) Mother Julia Hewlett,and documented in the 1901 census, is my Grandmother, her marriage to Frank Burt took place in Bristol Register Office.The marriage took place on 15th July 1908 and gives William Henry Vaughan as Father (still living). Occupation Farmer.

The address on the certificate for Fanny is Blagdon House Stoke Bishop Bristol. Does anybody have any information regarding this property, the
Bristol Waterworks own it now, and it is a reservoir and fishing centre.

Would Fanny have been in service and this may have been her place of work?
More mystery.

The witnesses at the wedding were Chas. Wm. Bird and I. V Bebston. Are the names familiar to anyone?

I have the remainder of Fanny's history documented to her death in
1921 -

but no knowledge of William Henry Vaughan's movements.

As Tanith says any help would be appreciated.
