Note:- Although Elizabeth Vaughan Hotten is shown here as daughter of Joseph, correctly reflecting Elizabeth Audrey Hotten’s most recent records, this does not seem very likely; a fact which Elizabeth Hotten acknowledges. Elizabeth Vaughan lived with her grandfather throughout her childhood and may have been illegitimate by another of his children.
