	<blockquote><p>This is the story that my mother, Aline, and my uncle, [[Lee Vaughn]], have told me about the origin of the Vaughn name taken by their grandpa, August J. Vaughn, sometime in the 1880's when he came from Illinois to Phelps County, Nebr.: At age, 18, my great grandfather, August Johnson came from Sweden in the early 1880's and worked for a few years for a Swedish farmer in Illinois with a last name of Vaughn. He appreciated the job opportunity in Illinois and admired his employer, Mr. Vaughn. August Johnson was later convinced by someone to move to Phelps County, Nebraska and homestead 160 acres about 2 miles south of the pioneer cemetery, which we now call [[Platte Valley Cemetery]]. Upon arriving in Phelps County and doing the homestead claim he discovered that the county had many families with the name of Johnson who were not related to him and made it confusing. (or maybe there was another reason or two) I have not examined the real estate title or homestead document at the Phelps County Clerk's office to see how the name is recorded, but, at some time during the 1880's when he first came to Phelps County, he assumed the name of A. J. Vaughn. His wife, 8 sons, and all of male offspring have used the Vaughn name ever since. A.J. and his wife, Matilda, and 4 of their sons, Togue, Fred, Ernest, and Carroll, are buried at the [[Platte Valley Cemetery]]. A.J. & Matilda had 4 other sons and a daughter who were married were buried with their families in Holdrege & Overton, Nebr. and near Akron, Colo.

			== Reflections by AJ's son, Alvin<ref>A History of Phelps County, Nebraska, Phelps County Historical Society, 1981, p. 524</ref> ==

			<blockquote>
			''ALVIN A. VAUGHN'' It was 1878 when my parents, August John and Matilda, decided to come to Phelps County. My father had come from Vastergotland, Sweden as a young boy at 14 years of age, his name then being Gust Johnson. He worked on a farm for a man by the name of Vaughn which he admired and liked very much. So he changed his name to August John Vaughn when he left for Phelps County, with no legal formality.
			</blockquote>
			<blockquote>
			Gust Johnson and Matilda Peterson from Smaland, Sweden, were married December 31, 1877 at Oneida, Illinois and their first home being Galesburg, Illinois. The following spring they joined with a group of westward immigrants traveling by covered wagon on the Overland trip to Nebraska. Their first son, Oscar, was born in the state of Iowa enroute to Phelps County, where mother’s parents, the C.J. Peterson’s had already started a homestead having come in 1876. The 2 families lived together until my dad took over a homestead relinquishment which was proved up after first living in a dug out, then a sod house and a simple frame structure. In 1893, the present home was built, with a lot of sacrifices and hard work. This home is where 8 sons and 1 daughter: Oscar, Ira, Alice, Eddie, Alvin, Carroll, Fred, Ernest and Togue grew up.
			</blockquote>
			<blockquote>
			My father was a progressive farmer, with the help of sons he raised and trained trotting horses, Shorthorn cattle and hogs, and in later years purebred Hereford cattle, having large auctions at our farm. Mother passed away August 1915.
			</blockquote>
			<blockquote>
			In 1918, our cousin, Olga Thulin, from Galesburg, Illinois, came to make her home with us, being the only child of my father’s oldest sister, Hannah and husband John Thulin. Olga was thought of as a member of the family. My father passed away January 10, 1947 and at this writing I am the only survivor of a large family and consider it a privilege to have seen many changes in Phelps County.
			</blockquote>
			<blockquote>
			I remember lights were tallow in a saucer, cheese making, cooking molasses, grasshopper plagues and the drouth that forced selling of livestock. With the present day progress, it makes for many memories.

	According to Dean and Larry Lindstrom, August had his wife, Matilda, committed to a medical facility prior to her death in 1915. Some of the older Lindstroms (e.g., Aline Lindstrom & Lee Vaughn) seem to have believed that August committed Matilda despite Matilda's absence of any serious illness. Around this time, perhaps because August's household was without a housekeeper, [[Olga Thuline]] moved into the August household and became the housekeeper. Olga is buried among the Vaughns in the [[Platte Valley Cemetery]], and her tombstone reads "Niece & Cousin."

Around this time, perhaps because August's household was without a housekeeper, [[Olga J. Thuline\|Olga Thuline]] moved into the August household and became the housekeeper. Olga is buried among the Vaughns in the [[Platte Valley Cemetery]], and her tombstone reads "Niece & Cousin."

	Olga is identified in the 1920 and 1930 Federal Censuses of Phelps County as living with August. <ref>http://search.ancestry.com/cgi-bin/sse.dll?rank=1&new=1&MSAV=0&msT=1&gss=angs-g&gsfn=Olga+J.&gsln=Thuline+&msbpn__ftp=Illinois%2c+USA&msbpn=16&msbpn_PInfo=5-%7c0%7c1652393%7c0%7c2%7c3247%7c16%7c0%7c0%7c0%7c0%7c&uidh=uv6&pcat=ROOT_CATEGORY&h=107465987&db=1920usfedcen&indiv=1&ml_rpos=2</ref>		Olga is identified in the 1920 and 1930 Federal Censuses of Phelps County as living with August. <ref>http://search.ancestry.com/cgi-bin/sse.dll?rank=1&new=1&MSAV=0&msT=1&gss=angs-g&gsfn=Olga+J.&gsln=Thuline+&msbpn__ftp=Illinois%2c+USA&msbpn=16&msbpn_PInfo=5-%7c0%7c1652393%7c0%7c2%7c3247%7c16%7c0%7c0%7c0%7c0%7c&uidh=uv6&pcat=ROOT_CATEGORY&h=107465987&db=1920usfedcen&indiv=1&ml_rpos=2</ref>
