Clement4, (Samuel3, Edward2, Barth1) Clement Vawter is the son of Samuel Vawter and Agnes Richardson. Samuel s inventory of estate is found in Cumberland Co., VA, 1789. Clement died ca 1819, Patrick Co., VA Inventory of estate 20 Feb 1819. The 1820 census Patrick Co. lists head of household Sally Vawter. There is no proof of this connection but interesting is John Clements connected to Clement Vawter s grandfather, Edward. Perhaps this is where the name is derived, they were neighbors. Further study is needed. Essex Co., Deed Book 1738-1742. pp. 211-213. 17 Mar 1740. From a line in Samuel Browne s old field then a straight line toward the Burying Place in Job Spearmans old field until it cometh to the said Spearman s line then to John Clements land being 50 acres Wit: Wm. Thomas, Elizabeth Browne and Edward Vawter. (GJNote: Saml Browne and wife Elizabeth sold land to John Clements, the mention of the burying place is the graveyard of the Vauter s Church of today.) John Poole conducted a dancing school at Prince Edward (VA) County Court house about 1784. His fee was 150 lbs. tobacco for 6 months instructions, 3 times per month. One of the students was Clement Vawter. In William & Mary Quarterly Vol. 7 series 2 1927. P282, Cumberland Co. VA marriage bonds. Clement Vawter & Sarah Johnson. 17 Sep 1788.

(Note: this case lasted until November 1789 when the Court found for the Defendant) William Snyder Vawter s material of the 1920 s states: Lemuel Vawter, son of Thomas m. Sally Johnson. Lemuel was born ca 1781. Children were: Jessie Richardson b. 17 May 1809 d. Apr 1888, William b. ca 1811, John b. ca 1813, 2 daughters and another son unnamed. This information is incorrect as we have a marriage record that shows Clement Vawter m. Sally Johnson in 1788 and Lemuel would have been but 7 years old. However, the families of Lemuel, Thomas and Samuel are all connected by marriage. Patrick Co., VA Wills and Inventory p. 301 dated 20 Feb 1819.

Family material states they moved to Wilson Co., TN in 1811 and they are seen in the Census of Wilson Co., by 1820. 1820 Census Index Wilson Co., TN, page 419 Ludwell Vaughter 1830 Census Wilson Co., TN , page 110 Ludwell Vaughters 0002001 - 00000001 (This would be 2 sons and a male and female which matches to the letter of L.

Vaughters of 2 sons David and Thomas) 1840 Wilson Co., TN Census p. 226 David Vaughters 21001 -00001 (This matches with the ages of David s first 3 children all born by 1840 and all sons) p. 226 Ludwell Vaughters 00001001-00000001 (This also matches with the marriage record of Thomas as 1841 as the 1840 census shows him still at home) 1850 Census of Wilson Co., TN shows Ludwell Vaughters age 56 (sic) b. VA and Frances Vaughter age 75 b. VA L. M. Vaughter in his letter mixes up the names of Lacewell and Ludwell and Lacifield and Lunceford/Linsford. But, the similarities of name and the census material of Wilson Co., TN prove this is the correct family. The additional reference to Jesse being a brother places this Ludwell with this family line. My great grandfather Lunceford Vaughter with his wife and two sons David R. and Thomas, emigrated from Virginia and settled in Wilson Co., Tennessee in the year 1811. David married Bettie Lacewell and they had ten children, 6 boys and 4 girls of whom one, John B. was my father. I do not know the dates of birth or death of any of them. David s children s names were Houston, William, Robert, John B., George, and James Vaughter. Girls- Francis, Darthulia, Delia and Ann Chase Vaughter. Thomas Vaughter, son of Lunsford, married Susan Bond and raised two children, David C. and Martha. Two brothers of Linsford came to Tennessee with him, Jessie settled in Rutherford Co., Tenn. and the other one whose name I do not know went on to western Tennessee. If there is any other information that I can give you don t hesitate to call on me. L. M. Vaughter, Walter Hill, Tenn.
