General Notes

Alias:<ALIA> Vaught or Vought /Shaeffer/
Some sources list her birth in 1700 while others list October 27, 1727 as
birthdate in Germany.
Could she be related to John Andrease Vaught born ca 1721 in Carlsbad
Germany who died after 1768 in Augusta County, Virginia?He married
Elizabeth (b. abt 1725) on about 1744 in Augusta County, Virginia.  His
parents were Johan Paulus Vaught (born about 1677 in Frankfort,
Palatinate, Germany) and Maria Katerina (born about 1687) so would be
about the right age to be "our" Elizabeth's brother or first cousin.  
According to Helen Spurlin
(http://awt.ancestry.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?op=get&db=bcrazy&id=I2785):
"John Andrew (Andreas) Vaught was born about 1721 in Carlsbad, Germany,
He was naturalized in 1744 in General Court, VA.  "The Virginia Germans"
by Klaus Wust, The Universidty Press of Virginia, Charlottesville (no
date), p. 50:  Some Germans went to the colonial capital for the
ceremony...With him John Paul Vogt of Frankfurt and Andrew Vogt of
"Carlsbad In Germany" became subjects.  He died after 1787 in Montgomery
Co. Va. 16 (Pp 6-7,11,from MS, Feb. 1, 1994, by Helen Spurlin, now
deceased, tentatively titled "Moving in on the Cherokees" or Neighbors to
the Cherokees".)" The same source lists Johan Paulus Vaught/Vogt as being
born abt, 1677 and died on 16 AUG 1761 in Augusta County, Virginia: "Came
to America on the Charming Betsy, John Ball, Master, from London on
October 12, 1733.  By January 1735, John had his first land patient. 
From 10-1733 to 1-1735 he arrived at, settled on, and probably built a
home on his land in an area of German settlement in the Northern Neck of
Orange Co., VA...John moved to the area of the Masanutten Mountain
between July 1744 and October 1744.  John Patented 400 acres of land on a
north draft of the North River of the Sheandoah, September 20, 1746." 
Known family members were his wife Mary Catherine, Son Johann Gasper
Vaught (John Casper) born about 1725 in Frankfurt, Germany; daughter
Catherine Margaret born abt. 1715; son Johann Andreas (John Andrew) born
abt. 1721; and daughter Maria Catherina (Mary Catherine) born abt. 1717.
Elizabeth is probably related to Martin Vogt of Peaked Mountain Church in
Rockingham County, VA. Martin Vogt is listed as an elder of Peter
Ermentrout's church at the time of the marriage of his daughter Elizabeth
Vogt on September 30, 1796 to George Schaefer. Our Elizabeth Vogt was
buried at Peaked Mountain Lutheran Church in Rockingham County, VA
(Peaked Mountain near Mill Creek, Shenandoah Valley, Augusta County,
Virginia) as Elizabeth Vogt Shaeffer.
According to Lisa Moore (luvpups2@@yahoo.com) in her email dated 1/8/2004
stated:  " I saw the cemetary records for the Peaked Mountain Church and
elizabeth vogt shaeffer died November 1795."
According to "Vaughts in Virginia" family tree by Priscilla Caviness
(pdcvaught@@yahoo.com) on Ancestry.com: Martin (Faught) Vogt is listed
with birth date of 1755, the son of John Gasper (Casper) Vogt born about
1725 in Germany and his wife Elizabeth Wilkiss born 1728 in Virginia.
Martin's daughter, Elizabeth Vogt married George Shaeffer on 9-30-1796.
John Vogt's parents were Johan Paulus Vogt (John Paul or Hans Paul) Vogt)
born 1680 in Luckenberg, Germany/died 18 August 1761 in Harrisonburg,
Virginia and his wife Mary Catherine born 1685 who died in 1760.  They
were married 1705 in Carlsbad, Germany. Their children were: Johan
Andreas Paulus Vogt (Andrew Voght or Vaught) born 1721 in Carlsbad,
Germany died 1787 in Harrisonburg, VA married Elizabeth Catherine
Errentrout (Ermentrout) in 1744; Catherine Margaret born 1715 in Germany
died 1793 in Augusta County; Maria Catahrina was born 1718 in Germany and
died 1739-1759; and Johan Gasper (John Casper) born in 1725.  No other
children are listed but "our" Elizabeth Vogt born 1727 could be a child
of this family. There is no information on Joh
