For those of you who are descended from Zeba Sanford's granddaughter Eva Smith, this matters. ;-) I got the following from England last week: "William Hough, who is my great uncle, was born in Myerscough, Lancashire, UK, and not Warrington as you have shown. [which I transcribed from Calton's book.] "His father, Simeon, taught at the village school, at Billsborough, Lancashire UK, near to the family farm where his Grandfather, another Simeon, started the Dynasty in this part of Lancashire. "Simeon came from Prestbury in Cheshire in the late 1700’s where [h]is father, The Reverend Joseph Hough, was the vicar of Prestbury Parish church. "I have substantial records of all the Hough’s including William who emigrated to Chicago marrying Eva Smith in New York in July, 1885." I have asked for more detail on dates, etc., will be adding it to the long-overdue-update to my website, and will be glad to share it with any descendants who might be on this list. -- David L.
