Mercy Mary Vaughn was the mother of Mary Fallis, the grandmother of Delila Ann Webb Lane, the great grandmother of Florence E. Lane Wellons and the great great grandmother of Ralph Wellons, my grandfather.
She was born on August 4, 1774 in Halifax County, Virginia.
She married Isaac Fallis in Shenandoah County, Virginia on October 10, 1797.
One of their 10 children was Mary Fallis, who was born on November 24, 1810 in Jefferson County, Kentucky. Another daughter was named Mercy!
The family moved from Virginia to Kentucky and eventually to the Bellbrook area of Sugar Creek Township in Greene County, Ohio, where they lived out their days.
Mercy Mary Vaughn Fallis died on August 4, 1834 and is buried in the Fallis Pioneer Cemetery on the site of their former farm in Sugar Creek Township in Greene County. Her headstone, which uses her first name, still stands.
