Howard Vaughton


Oliver Howard Vaughton (9 January 1861 – 6 January 1937) was an English international footballer who played as an inside left.

Vaughton played for England on five occasions, scoring six goals. Five of his goals were scored in a 13-0 victory over Ireland in Belfast on 18 February 1882, with his Villa team-mate Arthur Brown contributing four.

After his football career ended he ran a silversmith's firm and was charged with making a new FA Cup after the original disappeared in mysterious circumstances in 1895.

He died in Birmingham on 6 January 1937, three days before what would have been his 76th birthday.
