Vaughan Richardson (died 1729) was an organist at Winchester Cathedral, and a composer, particularly of church music.
His year of birth is not known, but he is known to have sung at the coronation of James II in 1685 as a chorister of the Chapel Royal. After a post at Worcester Cathedral from 1686 to 1688, he became organist of Winchester Cathedral in 1693; he was also lay vicar and master of the choristers. He remained there for the rest of his life.
On 5 October 1710 he married a Mrs Apleford at Winchester Cathedral. Richardson died in 1729 in Winchester, and was buried there on 9 May. A daughter, Laetitia, survived him.
