I have just figured out that Elsie Houghton was married to my uncle, Martin Bernard Yundt. Do you have any information on the Yundt side of the family from Texas? I don't know anything of the Houghtons although I do know that Else was from Kansas.

Elsie was my dad's older brother's wife, too. Who's your father - mine is Arnold. I have most of the Houghton line through another cousin. What so you have on the Yundts?

Hello - my family is also doing research on Houghton. I am very curious about dates concerning George Leon Houghton. My great grand father was George H. Houghton who had 4 boys: Leon Dent Houghton(guessing - born 1886 in Attleboro, MA), Harold Dale Houghton born 1888 in Attleboro, MA, Shirley A. Houghton, born August 1892 and Earl Amfield Houghton born in Attleboro, MA 12/27/1893 (my grandfather). My great grandfather, George H. Houghton born between 1836-1840 in England married Alice E. Snow (second marriage) in Chelsea, MA. She was born 3/25/1856 in Vasselboro, ME and died 11/10/1894. After Alice died (the mother) and then the father died (1894) the 4 boys listed above were then farmed out to different people to raise in Maine, one of which was Mary Snell Dixon who took in Shirley and Earl (the youngest) and the two oldest, Harold and Leon were given to relatives (we don't know who). Eventually my grandfather, Earle was contacted by Harold - but the 3 brothers never again reunited or found out what happened to their brother Leon Dent Houghton. We are still looking for him and his family - of what happened to him.

I have a George Leon Houghton, born 5 Oct 1876 in Indian Village, Tama County, IA. He is the son of Edward Ledoit Houghton, b 1851 Whittingham, Windham, VT,d 1937 err County, TX and Ione Shellenberger. Edward Ledoit was the son of David Houghton, b 1821 Whittingham, Windham, VT, d 1904 Tama County, IA and Sophronia Parker Putnam. David was the son of James Houghton, b 1798 and d 1868 Whittingham, Windham, VT and Sarah Smith. James was the son of Elias Houghton, b 1774 Windham, CT, d 1805 Benton, VT and Sarah Gilbert. From there, I have Edward Houghton, Jr (1740 - 1803 CT);Edward, 1700 MA - 1778 CT;James c 1650-1711 MA; and lastly Ralph, b 1623 England - 1705 MA.
Since Edward ledoit's daughter Else married my uncle, I only have Houghton going backward, not interested in following siblings forward at this time. Maybe having a date and place of birth will help
