Harry,

Carrie MOORE, born March 1840 in NJ, was enumerated with the Harry
VAUGHN family in Huntington, Connecticut on the 1900 U.S. census:

VAUGHN, HarryHead W M Oct 1850 47 M 8yNY NY NY

, Edna A.Dau W F Jan 1881 19 SNY NY NJ
MOORE, Carrie SIL W F Mar 1840 60 SNJ NJ PA

From this info, it would appear that Carrie was sister to Harry's first
wife and a maternal Aunt to Edna VAUGHN.
