Sorry, I haven't contacted anyone re Hougtons lately. My Houghtons were Joseph>Benjamin>Betsy. Joseph I believe was born in MA, died in VT betwedn 1790 and 1800. Benjamin died in Pownal, VT in 1856. Betsy married a Jepson and died in MA. Good luck. Jane ************************************** See what's free at http://www.aol.com.
