BiographyJacqueline Russell: Fred Houghton was a very successful business man and civic leader. He had built a mansion in Guthrie, Oklahoma in 1907, now known as The Stone Lion Inn (Haunted). You may have heard of it, as the owner claims the spirit of Agusta, one of the Houghton daughter's died in the home as a child and now haunts the home. (When in fact Agusta, lived a long full life)
Kathryn Wickham: local urban legend states (as you may have heard) the Houghton's had a female child that died from poisoning at the hands of the house maid. I can see through census records and city directories that all of the female children survived to adulthood. Since the "Irene" we previously discussed on the 1910 census is likely Marjorie, I am hoping to prove that she lived to adulthood through a death or marriage record.
The current owner of their childhood home states some of the Houghton children had returned some years ago to what is now a bed and breakfast and informed her they had a sister that passed away from this poisoning. I am trying to figure out why they would have a story like that from the immediate family when all the records I have seen so far prove otherwise.6

BiographyJOHN A. HOUGHTON, who died at his comfortable and widely known homestead in Florence township on the 31st of January, 1904, had then passed fifty years of his useful life in that locality. Still a hale, intelligent and beloved old man, he was so suddenly cut off by apoplexy that his relatives and friends could scarcely realize that his cheerful, helpful and inspiring earthly presence had gone from them forever. Up to the
time of his death he was known as one of the four surviving charter members of the old Masonic lodge known as St. Clair No. 164, of Florence township, and, in the conduct of his daily life, was a credit to the highest standard of the order. While never a constant church attendant, he was liberal in his donations to local charities and offered the warm hand of friendship and timely assistance to those in trouble, without knowledge of their religious creed. He was also a liberal patron of magazines and newspapers, and widely read on social, political and religious topics. A stalwart Republican, he was simply a firm beliver(sic) in the principles of his party, never using it as a personal leverage. He
did employ it to advance the public interest of the township which he assisted in organizing, but during the half century of his residence therein neither sought nor held office. He was a remarkably intelligent man, an unusually disinterested citizen and a Christian in practice, if there ever was one in this world.
Mr. Houghton was born in Tioga county, Pennsylvania, July 21, 1832, and was a son of Frederick and Lois Ann (Hampton) Houghton. His father was of old Massachusetts stock-a shrewd, intelligent, popular Yankee-who long conducted a hotel near Buffalo, New York, before he came west to Benton county in 1865. By his first wife (nee Hampton) he had one son and three daughters, his second wife being Miss Mary Whittington. His brother settled in Michigan during the early days and was one of the pioneer traders in the present locality of Houghton. A good father and citizen, a Mason of high degree, and a man who inspired general respect, Frederick Houghton passed away in 1867, his second wife dying eleven years later.
The son, John A., migrated from Pennsylvania to Michigan when he was a very young man, his first employment in that state being to cut timber for the pioneer railway which was built through the southern peninsular to Chicago. When the line was pronounced in working order he boarded the first train for the Illinois town which pulled out of Detroit. It was a trip teeming with thrills and hardships, as the train ran off the
track half a dozen times and the brave adventurers were obliged to go without food for thirty-six hours. But the muddy city at the foot of the lake did not appeal to Mr. Houghton, and he went to work for a farmer in DeKalb county, Illinois, by the name of Ben Darnell. In 1854 his employer started with his family, household goods and cattle, for the wild prairies of Benton county, and his useful "farm hand" was one of the party. Mr. Houghton took up a quarter section himself and, after working for Mr. Darnell for some time, married Miss Mary Bower and set up his own household. This move in his life marked the commencement of his career of permanent prosperity and advancement. He afterward purchased forty acres more. His wife (the present widow) had been born in Yorkshire, daughter of John and Hannah Bower, also of that English county; had emigrated to Canada in her girlhood and to Benton county in the fall of 1854. As her father was a highly educated man and considerate as well, the daughter received a good education, and Mrs. Houghton is considered a remarkably intelligent lady, both highly respected and beloved. She is the mother of five children, of whom four survive as honored men and women. Hannah Lois, has been a teacher in the Benton county schools for several years; William Anthony, is now conducting the home farm for his mother and sister; John Frederick Houghton, the third born, is the only one of the children to leave Benton county, is now a merchant in the south; Martha Jane, the youngest, has been a teacher in the Benton county schools but is now looking after home duties.

NotableNASA scientist; the major developer of mono-propellant hydrazine-fueled rocket steering engine used in most satellites
DeathJan 25, 1992Bowie, Prince Georges Co., MD, USA
ObituaryDavid Houghton Suddeth, retired NASA spacecraft engineer, mountaineer, social and political activist, recreational sailor, bibliophile and avid rifle and pistol marksman, died in his home in Bowie, Maryland, of Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia, non-Hodgkins Lymophoma, and Pneumonia, January 25th, 1992 at the age of 63.

Born January 3, 1929 in Rugby, North Dakota to Rev. Vernon Troy Suddeth and Alma Houghton Suddeth. At age eight he became one of the youngest members of the National Inventors' Congress, having developed a unique window washer, a potato peeler and masher, and a shampooing device and was a featured speaker at their annual meeting. He built his first flying model airplane at 10, discovered science fiction at 12, built his first gunpowder rocket at 13, and at fifteen, when he got his first glasses and saw the beauty of the Oklahoma stars for the first time, he conceived his life's ambition, to work with rockets and satellites "to bring mankind closer to the stars." He was told there were no such careers. He proved them wrong.

In the early 1960s as a NASA engineer, he heard about the proposed "Voyager" Grand Tour of the outer planets and realized that it could not be achieved without development of a reliable long-term rocket control system that could survive the multi-year voyage, yet none existed. He became the major developer of mono-propellant hydrazine-fueled rocket steering engines first used for guidance on Applications Technology Satellite (ATS-3) in 1967. The spacecraft rocket guidance and control systems he designed are now standard on most satellites and other weather, observation, and communications spacecraft, and flew on the Viking Mars Lander in 1976, and Voyager which exited our solar system.

Ashes launched into Earth orbit by Celestis Memorial Space Flights May 22, 2012 on their New Frontier Flight from Cape Canaveral, Florida aboard a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket and ashes remained in orbit until the second stage's orbit decayed a month after launch, and the spacecraft and ashes burned together on reentry, scattering his ashes around the globe he had circled.
A final set of ashes has been sealed into a handblown bottle made from volcanic ash from Mt. St. Helens which he lead a mountaineering team to the top of so that his ashes may fly again offworld with the first of his decedents to fly into space while living.
