"Christopher C. Vaughan, farmer and stock raiser, was born in this county December 7, 1847, and is a son of Judge G. W. Vaughan. In early life he received a common-school education, passing most of the time during the Rebellion in Green County, Mo., where his parents resided the greater part of the war.

July 3, 1870, he was united in marriage to Martha J. CARROL, daughter of David Carrol, of Spring Valley, Washington County, and then located upon a farm on War Eagle Creek, Benton County. Mrs. Vaughan was born in Boone County, Iowa, and is the mother of the following five children: Grenville A., Adieann E., Christopher C., George D. and Amanda A.

After remaining on War Eagle Creek a few years, Mr. Vaughan located in Prairie Township. He changed his residence several times during the first ten years of his marriage, always remaining in Benton and Washington Counties, however, and in 1883 located upon the farm where he now lives.
