"Thomas E. Vaughan, 80, a long-time employee of the Missouri State Teacher's Association, died at the University Hospital in Columbia, January 21.

Before coming to the staff headquarters of the association in July 1950, Mr. Vaughan had served as school superintendent at Eldon and Wellsville. He also served on the summer faculty of Central Missouri State College in Warrensburg for several terms. Mr. Vaughan was closely associated with the development of the 1931 school law. In July 1931, Mr. Vaughan was made assistant secretary and business manager of the Missouri State Teacher's Association and served in this capacity until May 1938 when he was made associate secretary. In July 1941, he was designated as business manager and continued in this capacity until he reached retirement age in June 1943.

Since 1943, he served the association in a part-time capacity and devoted considerable time to historical research on education in Missouri. While serving as a full-time member of the association staff, Mr. Vaughan was known for his thoughtfulness in the field of educational research.

Among his survivors are eight sons and one daughter. A son, Lt. Thomas Vaughan, was killed in World War II. Another son, Paul E. Vaughan of Columbia, is known throughout Missouri in connection with his work as representative of a publishing firm." March 1959
