Simon VAUGHT was born about 1763. He died on May 8 1778 in Bald Eagle
Creek, Pennsylvania. From "The Genesis of Mifflin County, Pennsylvania"
page 37:
"Saturday, May 9, Col. Arthur Buchan wrote from 'Old town, Juniata"(Lewistown)
to George Stewart (Tuscarora): I this moment recd. by Robert Moor (Moore) Express,
a Letter from Capn. Bell, stationed at Bauld Eagle Which informs me that Simon
Baught (Waugh), one of his company was killed on the 8th. Instant, at the house
of Jones (Jonas) Davis, upon Bald Eagle Creek'.
This is during the war, but it seems to intimate that Simon was killed by Indians,
as the article continues with report of a family killed by Indians.
