I found some information on Silas Huntington at http://huntington.laurentian.ca/index.php?file=founder_e.htm... He was born 19 Feb 1829 in Kemptville, Quebec, Canada and married Elizabeth Stewart on 21 Jun 1854 in St. Andrews, Quebec, Canada. He died 03 Aug 1905. This Silas had two more wives: Harriet Emmeline Agar and Annie Isabella Anderson. Elizabeth Stewart died in 1891. The site said that there were five sons, but only three are named: Samuel A. Huntington; J.W. Huntington; Hugh Stewart Huntington (born in Canada; died 1890 in Berlin, Ontario, Canada; married Annie Laura Mills.)
You will find more information on this family, at least the ancestors, on the Huntington Family Association site.
My Huntingtons were also in Quebec--Elizabeth Huntington married Rev. William Marsh, who was a United Empire Loyalist. Elizabeth's sister, Lydia Huntington married William Groat. We know precious little about Elizabeth and Lydia Huntington, except that their father was likely a Simon Huntington. It is also rumored that we are related to Samuel Huntington who signed the Declaration of Independence, but I haven't found any connections for 'our Simon Huntington'. There was a Simon Huntington in Quebec who may have been a United Empire Loyalist. However, I haven't found his parents yet.
