Hi Houghton Listers, Below is my list on Houghton ancestors. I started off knowing about Mary Eaton Houghton, then after looking at the 1880 census and consulting Charles J. Vella, Ph.D., who is rewriting the 1912 Houghton book, he was able to fill in some blanks. I know that some of mine will match some of yours. If you'd like to share more or help with my line and establish a connection, please do. I stopped at generation 9, as that starts going into most people who are still living, incl. me!!
