'... It certainly seems we are talking about the same Harrington Houghton. I guess I have Elsie's last name spelled incorrectly, but I will change my records to match your spelling.

First, let me say that Harrington Houghton was my husband's great grandfather. His great grandmother was Harrington's 3rd wife, Alda Antrim. I do not know the name of his first wife with whom he had a son by the name of William Houghtonborn 1864. I found it interesting that when he married Elsie she was only 14. ... The Houghton's are on my husband's mother's side of the family. ...'
