      Hello, I am Donald L Vaughn ,
      Great great grandson of Joseph , his daughter was Mary Jane Mc
      Quiston,Walker , granddaughter Nancy Belle Walker , Vaughn was my fathers mother.
      William Chancy Vaughn. The Walkers had many children,but only four lived to be adults.
      Joseph He lived in Greencastle Iowa ( farming & coal mining) We could never find where
      is was buried at, many times we have looked, some times we thought he died in a coal mine
      cave in some where in Jasper county. Then we could not find as yet where his wife Nancy
      Tuttle Mc Quiston is buried. The Mc Quiston Walker Vaughn families live to be quite old. My
      dads sister Leone Vaughn (Belle & Nimrods daughter is still living at 100 will be 101 in Jan 14
      still very bright. Have pictures Mary Jane Mc Quiston and her husband Alexander Walker and
      their family that lived in Colfax & Greenccastle. If you find where he might have died and was
      buried at, sure would like to know so I can go there. Donald L Vaughn 2968 East Tiffin Ave
      Des Moines Iowa 50317 Most of the old family is buried in Mc Keever cemetery between
      Green Castle & Coalfax some some stones were vandalized years ago when I was quite young
      ,thought maybe his & hers where part of this. Thank You for finding what you have . So many
      of his brothers children was named after him, they all lived near a small coal mining town
      around coalfax.
