He was son of Lieutenant-Colonel John Francis Vaughan, of an old recusant (Roman Catholic) family, the Vaughans of Courtfield, Herefordshire. His mother, Eliza Rolls from The Hendre, Monmouthshire, was a Catholic convert and intensely religious. All five of the Vaughan daughters became nuns, while six of the eight sons took Holy Orders and became priests. Three were later called as bishops: Roger became the Roman Catholic Archbishop of Sydney, Australia; Herbert, the eldest, became Archbishop of Westminster. John, in his turn was made the titular bishop of Sebastopolis and auxiliary bishop in Salford in 1909.
