	~~== Researching Matilda's Parents ==~~

	[[User:Jim.lindstrom]]: It is unclear to me who Matilda's parents are. [http://familytreemaker.genealogy.com/users/d/o/a/Darlene--J--Doane/ Darlene Doane], who has researched the Vaughns extensively, [http://familytreemaker.genealogy.com/users/d/o/a/Darlene--J--Doane/WEBSITE-0001/UHP-0166.html believes] Matilda's parents are Carl J Peterson and Maria Sophia Peterson. This is certainly possible, as their birthdates look plausible and both of these individuals are [http://www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=~~gr&GRid~~=36507115 buried] in the Platte Valley Cemetery. I have been unable to find records of Carl and Maria in any censuses, though. An alternative hypothesis is that Matilda's parents are Swan and Sophia. An 1870 census ties a Matilda Peterson, of roughly the right age, to Swan and Sophia, and has them living in Knox County Illinois, where we know Matilda ultimately married A.J.		== Historical Records ==

Swan is listed as a RR Laborer, Sophia is listed as "keeping home", and all four children are in school. Mary was born in Illinois, but the rest were born in Sweden. That means the family (including Matilda) must have immigrated 4-8 years earlier (between 1862 and 1866). Swan is included as "a male citizen of 21 years or older".
