Portsmouth and Newport Rhode Island and I read from the research, in the book, of the land  grants and
              possessions of the town of Waterford created and it was dated July 25, 1636. A grant of the great divide, in
              this law that,  it was giving it out to the freeman, YTo all over the townsmen then inhabiting the town of
              Waterford, or 120 of them. The land was divided into four divisions every division being  60 rods in breath
              beginning next to the small lots and  bonded with the  Cambridge line on the  northern side and it was next
              to the plowed  land on the south,  which  was  excluded from that where  the Meadows and Waters  being
              exmpted and those are used for common livestock to be enclosed and defended, I looks it is the first
              example of a Homeowners Association I guess.

                      It further talks about how  he got  on the  ship and the genealogy records of John  Vaughan
              pronounced ihe name Vaughan,  bear it out, it was spelled  and extends on the  time  that the ancient
              Welch tribes invaded the Brittany's,  which was 300 years or more  BC, The aim of this book, that I'm
              reading  from,  is to preserve the records of John Vaughan and then the descendents so far as they could
              be procured from town and  church records, probate court  records,  register of deeds etc. also family
              papers  that were  assembled, I had responses to our inquiries about more information, or traditions, in my
              line, is that John  Vaughan ran away from home and swam  to  the ship in the harbor and he was  not 21,
              at the  time.  He did  not go  back  for his patrimony as he should  have  done.  Then  he went to
              Watertown .

                     In Watertown, he is worrying  about land  and  here's some other information John  Vaughn
              probably came to Portsmouth, Rhode  Island,  in 1637, In the Rhode  Island  colonial  records  we  find the
              following  quote of the  general meeting on the 13th of the seventh month in 1618,


                             “…by virtue of a warrant, John Vaughn,  was with several others,  were summoned to
                             appear  before this  body for a riot and of drunkenness  are then commanded on this 13th
                             ofthe seventh  month.  It was the recording. we agreed In order that John, and the others,
                             should pay five shillings"


                                 So alas,  I come  to it naturally.

                      What we also  found in the records and  t h i s this book was published by the author himself in
              Brooklyn Vermont in 1976 and it was John  Vaughan who  settled in Newport, Maryland in 1638, and
              there was  a genealogy record of his descendents including 12 brothers branches started by 12 pioneers
              who  left Rhode  Island and  it was  written by H Vaughan  Griffin Junior. Until it was  published by the
              author and  is in the Library of  Congress  catalog  (card  number 76 - 47797  ). Copyrighted in the United
              States in 1976, by Vaughan  Griffin Senior, all rights  are  reserved. It was  printed in Fairhaven, Vermont,
              by Ruby printing company and it was bound  by the  New Hampshire  binary Inc.  in Concord, New
              Hampshire.

                     That is enough to get started.
