BiographyI have just been contacted by a distant cousin (Cindy B.) with this information: The Houghton family left Sulfur Springs on Dec. 2, 1867 and headed SW (due to poor economic conditions). The weather got bad and James D. got sick while driving the oxen. They stopped at a family's ranch in Navarro County, near Waco Texas. They stayed with this family, the Ritchies (I have found that their house was a common stop). James D. developed pneumonia and died on Dec. 24, 1867. He was buried in the Ritchies' family plot. (He only has a marker at the Little Lake Cemetary, and is not buried there)

----Houghton, Charles F. (27 Aug. 1851 – 14 Dec. 1934)

Charles F. Houghton passed away about 10:15 Friday evening, Dec. 14, 1934, aged 83 years, 3months and 17 days.

Mr. Houghton was born Aug. 27, 1851, in Allegany County, New York. In 1854 he came with his parent to Lake Geneva vicinity, in Illinois. In the year 1856, the Houghton families, four in number, migrated from northern Illinois, and settled on homestead land in Houghtonburg, Sidney Houghton, wife, and son, Charles, taking up the land which is now the E. W. Grush farm, where the subject of this sketch lived for all, excepting ten years of his long life. He lived in Humbird for ten years, and on July 3, 1932, he returned to the old home farm, where he has been cared for by Mr. and Mrs. Grush until the time of his death.

Mr. Houghton was united in marriage, at Sparta, to Miss Alice May Walker, on July 4, 1876. She preceded him in death after twenty years of happy married life, on Jan. 1, 1896. No children were born to this union and Mr. Houghton never remarried, turning his affection the little ones and young people with whom he came in contact.

Farming was his life occupation, which he followed until advancing years made it necessary for him to rent the farm, and it was eventually sold, Mr. Grush being the purchaser about twenty years ago. He attended high school at Black River Falls in his youth, and was a graduate of Gale College of Galesville. In the early ‘70s he was a clerk in the store of E. A. Freeman in this village. He was an active member of the old Odd Fellow lodge, which existed in Humbird many years ago.

The funeral services were held at the Grush home Sunday afternoon at 2:00 o’clock, Dec. 16th, 1934, and burial was in the family lot in Houghtonburg Cemetery. Rev. V. D. Weidler officiated. Pallbearers were old neighbors, and the large number of flowers testified to the esteem this pioneer settler was held in the community. He leaves no near relatives. Clarence Houghton is a cousin, and is the sole survivor of those pioneers who journeyed by ox team into the frontier lands to make farms out of the wilderness.7
BiographyHoughton, Charles (27 AUG 1851)
Charles Houghton was born Aug. 27, 1851, in Allegheny Co., N.Y., and came to Wisconsin in 1855. He was the son of Sidney Houghton and still lives on the old homestead in Houghtonburg settle by his father so many years ago. He was married to Miss Mae Waltker July 4, 1876. Mrs. Houghton was an invalid for many years and passed away Jan. 1, 1894. Mr. Houghton believes that Humbird is doing as much business as any of the small towns and that we are going to see better times from now on. Extensive advertising by the merchants has drawn more trade here, which has greatly helped the town. Now if we could have a small manufacturing plant and more men with capital there would be no question of Humbird, Clark County, Wis.'s rapid growth.
