Obituary:
N. A. Vaughan
Prominent Citizen of Adelphi Succumbs to Heart Ailment
Newton A. Vaughan, one of the best known business men in the four adjoining counties, passed away at his home in Adelphi Sunday a.m. after an illness of several months. On Sunday morning he arose at the usual time and had about completed his dress when he was seized by a heart attack from which he never recovered.
Mr. Vaughan with his family came to Adelphi thirty years ago from Jackson County when he purchased the furniture and undertaking business from the Wittwer Bros., and has continued in this work until the time of his death.
During these thirty years Mr. Vaughan has served the public honestly and faithfully, which will live from time on in memory of a faithful servant, which is a beautiful heritage that has been bestowed upon his family of industrious children and the bereaved widow.
We can truthfully say, that those who asked him for favors, were never turned away. One of his chief concerns were to help the less fortunate.
He was born September 23rd, 1865, the son of Stephen and Lucinda Perrell Vaughan of Jackson county and was married to Jennie Miller who died in 1921 and later was married to Ella Miller. He was a member of the Knights of Phthias, Red Men, and the Methodist church, and a member of board of directors of Green Summit cemetery. Mr. Vaughan was a man who numbered his friends by the score. His genial good nature, his hospitalilty, his helpfulness will be testified to by many.
Surviving are his (2nd) wife, four sons and one daughter, Ernest of Jackson, Miller of Chillicothe, Loren of Columbus, Stanley of Parkersburg, W. Va., and Mrs. Charles Dresbach of Kingston. He also leaves one sister, Mrs. R. A. Blair of Jackson.
The funeral services were held at the Adelphi M. E. church, 2 o'clock p.m., Wednesday, where the church was filled with sympathizing friends and relatives. Rev. Field, a former pastor officiated, assisted by five former pastors, namely, Rev. C. L. Thomas, Rev. Frederick Brown, Rev. E. B. Dean, Rev. J. K. Price and Rev. R. A. Blair.
Many beautiful floral designs surrounded the casket that were presented by the business men of the village, the Sunday School and church organizations, the K. of P and Red Men lodges.
Burial was made on the family lot in Green Summit cemetery.

Newton A. Vaughan. Representing one of the very old families of Southern Ohio, and now an active business man at Adelphi, Colerain Township of Ross County, Newton A. Vaughan has had a very busy career. He was liberally educated, followed farming and stock raising for a number of years, but finally removed to Ross County and has conducted the leading furniture and undertaking establishment at Adel phi for the past fourteen years. His birth occurred on a farm in Bloomfield Township of Jackson County, Ohio, September 23, 1863.
Newton A. Vaughan, the only son of his parents, grew up on his father's stock farm. After finishing the course in the rural schools he attended a select school in Bloomfield Township, also Professor Morgan's school at Oak Hill and Jackson, and finally took the scientific course in the Ohio Northern University at Ada. While thus liberally educated, he did not adopt a profession, but for a number of years applied all his energies to farming and stock raising on 240 acres of his father's original homestead. In 1902 Mr. Vaughan left the farm and moved to Adelphi in Ross County, where he entered the furniture and undertaking business which he has conducted with growing prosperity to the present time. In 1904 he graduated from the Myers School of Embalming and is equipped both by professional training and with all material facilities for carry ing on his business.
