History

James William Vaughn and his family established a plantation in the area in the late 19th century. He donated some of his land, and as such, the community took his name. [2] In 1894, the Vaughn Post Office was established. [3] In the early 20th century, a Norfolk Southern Cedartown District railroad was built, and it went through Vaughn. At one point, it had brought First Lady Eleanor Roosevelt through town. The railroad is now closed, and sits abandoned.
