That's great Ev.

And likely entry for parents' marriage:

Marriages Jun 1884 

Vaughan    Joseph         Stafford    6b   45   
Wright    Sarah Anne     Stafford    6b   45   

You will be able to confirm mother's maiden name from Joseph's 1925 marriage cert.

Hi

I'm back now.

I saw those entries before I had to rush off, Monica, but felt that they weren't close enough to the info that  pj gave - birth 1885/6 and mother Sarah Watters. it could be that it was a second marriage.

I think it might be best first of all to check the info from the marriage and death certs for parents's names and father's occupation.

I'll go see what I can dig out.

The death certificate (15 July 1947) shows Joseph to be a chauffeur, living Kippford. Aged 62.  His father, Joseph, was a fitter and turner (dec) and his mother was Sarah, m.s. Watters, as pj said.

So we're looking for a fitter and turner. I don't think the Staffs one is likely  :-\

Interestingly, the marriage cert gives the father as George Vaughan, rivetter. Neither parents down as deceased on 30 April 1925. Joseph was 40. Which suggests a birth date of 1885 or even 1884  :-\

Think I might have found the family in 1901

RG13/4767 Folio  81  Page 7

46 Blandford St, Westgate, Newcastle upon Tyne

George Vaughan, 51, Rivetter, boiler, b. Ireland
Mary, 48, b. Ireland
William 23, labourer - shipyard, b. Scotland
Annie, 18, servant, b. Newcastle upon Tyne
Joseph, 16, heater - iron trade, b. Hull
George, 13, b. Newcastle upon Tyne
Sarah, 11, b. Newcastle upon Tyne
David, 3, b. Newcastle upon Tyne


Mother wrong - but could Sarah have died  :-\  It's the nearest that I can find and it's in the right area.

William, aged 23 in 1901's mother was a Sarah Ann m.s. looks like Fonler or Ferler  :-\ on his birth cert:

Anderston, 6 Dec 1877, William James Father George Vaughan, boilermaker, journeyman

Not sure about it but it looks interesting. This snippet shows the parents names and the date and place of their marriage.

Certainly a better fit Gadget  ;)  Father's names threw me off the path!

This looks like the family that you have in 1891:

George Vaughan    38, b. Ireland
Sarah A Vaughan 34, b. Ireland
William J Vaughan 13, b. Scotland
Ann J Vaughan    8, b. Scotland - differs from 1901. If she was born in Scotland, would help to reconfirm mother's maiden name
Joseph Vaughan    6, b. Hull
George Vaughan    1, b. Hull

Address: 94 Blandford St, Westgate, Newcastle upon Tyne

Ann daughter's birth place looks to have been put down in error for the 1891 entry. This looks like the family in 1881 before her birth already in England, with a slight detour via Ireland:

George VAUGHAN      Head       29      Ireland      Boiler Riveter      
Sarah Ann VAUGHAN      Wife       28      Ireland            
William James VAUGHAN      Son       3      Glasgow            
Thomas VAUGHAN      Son        1        Ireland     

Address: 28 Ormond St, Hedworth Monkton & Jarrow, Durham, England      

Thomas must have died young (explains the gap in ages between William and Annie).

Many thanks Monica.  I think you are on the right track now.  I am looking forward to finding out more.  :)
I am trying to research my grandfather - Joseph Vaughan, born 1886 (or 85).  He died in 1947 at Kippford in Southern Scotland.
 
He worked as a boiler maker in a shipyard in Gateshead before moving to Kirkcudbrightshire, Scotland where he met and married my grandmother.

His father was also called Joseph Vaughan and his mother was Sarah Watters
