Title: Penmachno
Post by: Wil Hen on Tuesday 24 January 12 23:50 GMT (UK)

Searching for the parents of these three Vaughan sisters born in Penmachno Parish.
Barbara b.abt 1801; Sarah b.abt 1809; Hannah b.abt 1815. Probably they had more siblings.
I noticed there was a Richard Vaughan b.abt 1803 who kept the White Horse Inn and a shoemaker also a David Vaughan b.abt 1811 who was also a shoemaker.

Diolch /Thank You
