Daughter Eliza b. Feb 1853 & Nancy Cady remarries 07 Apr 1856, Adams Co., IL – I realize they possibly divorced in the 1850s

PLACE OF DEATH
Two children born in MO, Eliza Jane, Lewis Co. across the Mississippi River from Adams Co., IL & 3 in Adams Co., IL all later living in Adams Co., IL tends to place the family more in Adams Co., IL. Children born in MO may have been because of relatives and/or mid wives preference.⁴

Note

Slocum: Most of the Houghton men in Ursa, Adams Co., IL area were fishermen and supposedly operated out of "Houghton's Landing", which was on a backwater area which connected to the Mississippi River east of Ursa, IL. Across the river was LaGrange, Lewis Co., MO.²
