John Thomas McGAUGHY

Father: Samuel R. McGAUGHY
Mother: Charlotte Ann CLARK

Family 1: Mollie // (Apr 20, 1866 - Apr 17, 1886) and Cora // (Jul 21, 1875 - Jan 11, 1958)

(1) The Edelman & Adams family records list John's wife as Mary "Mollie" JOHNSON. Census records for 1900, 1910, 1920, 1930 and 1940 list his wife as Cora (with middle initial C. or D.) with maiden surname unknown. By reviewing the census records, mathematically John must have been married twice. His first marriage would have been about 1883, and produced his two sons, Samuel and Oscar. His second marriage to Cora would have taken place about 1892 and produced the remaining nine offspring. This is supported by information on his grave marker. Was the first wife Mary JOHNSON? What was Cora's maiden surname? These are questions requiring further research.
