Boston Evening Transcript, Wednesday, May 31, 1922. "FORMER BOSTON INSPECTOR -- Andrew J. Houghton Had Long Been Connected with Police Department.
Andrew J. Houghton, former police inspector of the Boston Police Department and for many years at the head of the Kearsarge Naval Veterans' organization with the rank of Admiral, died yesterday at his home in Ashmont. "Andy" Houghton, as he was familiarly known among his circle of friends, was a veteran of the Civil War, having run away from home in his early youth to join the navy. He traveled extensively all over the world. In his young manhood he became a member of the police force and rose to be an inspector to the department, his career being full of a great variety of experiences, which included the capture of many crooks. Since the death of his wife seven years ago Mr. Houghton had made his home with a cousin, Mrs. Mary Houghton at 27 Carruth street, Ashmont, passing much of his time also at his summer home in Scituate and Palm Beach. He was seventy-nine years of age. He leaves three nephews, Dr. Richard Houghton of East Boston, Joseph Houghton of East Boston and Arthur Houghton of New York. A niece, Miss Theresa Houghton of Roxbury, also survives him."
