Vaughan entries in the Blackhead (Conception Bay) Methodist church records

What follows is a list of all Vaughan entries in the Blackhead Methodist church records held at PANL as of January 2005. This list constitutes a typescript of my handwritten extraction from photocopies of the original records, which is to say that I may have inadvertantly introduced some errors while transcribing and typing... as always, you should double-check against the original records. That said, if you spot any mistakes that I have made, please let me know at dapike@mun.ca.

Some comments about these lists:

• The entries below are in the same order as presented in the church records, which was not always in chronological order.
• Unless I mistakenly overlooked an entry or two, this is a complete list of all Vaughan entries (well, except for 3 baptisms that occurred after 1940), including all marriages where one of the marriage witnesses had Vaughan in his/her name.

• Baptisms: 1816 - 1840, 1842 - 1970
• Marriages: 1816 - 1842, 1844 - 1848, 1842 - 1970
• Burials: 1882 - 1907, 1907 - 1943

Baptisms (1816 - 1970)

Marriages (1816 - 1970)

The format of most of the entries that follow is as follows:

• Line 1: Marriage Number, and Groom's name, abode, occupation, etc
• Line 2: Bride's name, abode, etc
• Line 3: Marriage date and location
• Line 4: List of witnesses
