ObituaryBenjamin created a generous deed of trust shortly before the Great Depression. In it he gave his relationship not only to his son and grand-daughter, but to his sisters, nieces, and nephews. The instrument is a wealth of genealogical material.

Search of the Cincinnati Pub Lib newspaper index discloses an obit. 6/07/1930 entitled: "Body brought home; octogenarian steel executive to be buried here." In the 1890-1 Cincinnati Directory he is listed as Pres of the Addyston Pipe and Steel Co.

He was dropped from Quaker membership 8-8-1886.
---------------------------------------------
In the 1900 census he is listed with wife Elizabeth b July 1858 in Ohio, and son Richard b Feb 1886, creating a one year discrephancy in Richard's birth year (HAUGHTON BENJAMIN 45 M W OH IL COOK 1-WD EVANSTON 1900; Series: T623 Roll: 292 Page: 26). Elizabeth's father was noted as born in Ireland and her mother as born in Pennsylvania, linking her to Richard and Elenor Kerfoot found in the 1870 census.

In 1910 Benjamin F Haughton 59 b OH and his wife Elizabeth 51 b OH with 1 of 2 children noted as living, are in New Rochelle, NY where he was a "member of firm" "pipe factory" (1910; Census Place: New Rochelle Ward 3, Westchester, New York; Roll: T624_1091; Page: 8B; Enumeration District: 0088; FHL microfilm: 1375104).


In 1927 on the SS Caledonia sailing from Londonderry on July 2nd and arriving in New York on July 10, Benjamin b 31 Mar 1850 travelled with Sara Haughton b 19 Aug 1858 and Agnes Bell b 25 Mar 1861, all born in Cincinati, Ohio with Benjamin and Sara living in Beverly, NJ and Agnes at 3754 Clifton Ave, Cincinati, OH (Ancestry.com: New York, Passenger Lists, 1820-1957; 1927; Arrival: New York, New York; Microfilm Serial: T715; Microfilm Roll: 4088; Line: 3; Page Number: 6.)

In the May 6, 1930 census, Benjamin F Haughton 80 and wid, b OH, is living in New Jersey and his sister Sara M 71 was living with him (1930; Census Place: Edgewater Park, Burlington, New Jersey; Roll: 1318; Page: 11B; Enumeration District: 0032; Image: 362.0; FHL microfilm: 2341053).

BiographySon of Benjamin & Anne (Murphy) Haughton.
Samuel was educated at the Academical Institution, Belfast Ireland. From his youth he assisted his father in linen bleaching at Banford, and in management of Mountpleasant Flour Mills on adjoining property. From 1840 he travelled in America for the firm of Richardson Brothers & Co of Belfast as their sole rep. He established himself in Cincinati OH, having travelled from Quebec to New Orleans by stage coach and river. He was responsible for the first consignment of American bacon to Liverpool, ENG about the year 1846 (Haughton Gen p 22).

Samuel was evidently a member of the Cincinnati Meeting of the Society of Friends (Quakers). His marriage to Agnes Frankland is listed in the records with their 6 children, and their dates of death. Another entry for Samuel Haughton is that he was received into membership on a certificate from the Lurgan MM, Ireland. There are other Haughton names, including William, Malcomb, and Thomas. The entries are found in the records of the Cincinnati Monthly Meeting as published by William Wade Hinshaw, ENCLYCLOPEDIA OF QUAKER GENEALOGY, Vol. V, (The Learning Company Inc: CD-Rom 192) p. 910.
------------------------------------------------------------------------

The family is found in the July 15th, 1870 Census of Cincinnati, Hamilton County, Ohio: Samuel 59, Pork Merchant, b Ireland; Agnes F 39, b England; Benjamin 20, Bookkeeper b Ohio; Thomas W 14 attending school b Ohio; Sarah 12 attending school b Ohio; and Agnes E 10 attending school b Ohio. Also in the household was Mary Frankland, 41 born in England and several servants (HAUGHTON SAMUEL 59 M W IREL OH HAMILTON 9-WD CINCINNATI 1870; Series: M593 Roll: 1212 Page: 375).

In 1880 they continued to live in Cincinnati, with Benjamin 30, Sarah 22, and Agnes E 19 at home. Samuel's occupation was listed as a retired merchant (HAUGHTON SAMUEL 69 W IREL OH HAMILTON 3-WD; CINCINNATI 1880; Series: T9 Roll: 1024 Page: 274). However, Benjamin is known to be married in 1878 with 2 children by 1880. Perhaps the enumerator was given information about the family, and not necessarily who lived there at the time.

Note'From news article: 'Warren Cronicle', Warren, OH (April 30, 1925?) 'Is 80 Today!' L.J. Haughton of Southington Celebrates Anniversary Lester J. Haughton, son of Alonzo and Abigail Haughton, was born in Southington, April 30, 1845, and is celebrating his eightieth birthday today. 'His father came with parents from New York state as a small boy and his mother came from Connecticut with her parents as a young lady. His mother was the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Joel Ensign, and was a school teacher. She taught several terms in Trumball Co. and at least one term in the brick school house that long stood east of Southington center on the present Andy Stine land. 'Mr. Haughton went thru the common schools of his boyhood, which he thinks would amount to going thru the first six grades of present-day school.' 'He was married in 1867 to Martha M. Bronson, who died in 1874. They had one child, Ora E., who died when in his twelfth year. Mr. Haughton married his second wife, Mrs. Mary A. Craver in 1875 and she died three years later.' 'He united with the Disciple Church in Southington in 1867, and during most of his life has served on the official board of the church. He was for many years superintendent and teacher in Sunday school.' 'He served one year as trustee of Southington township and twenty-fouryears as Justice of the Peace, receiving his first commission from Gov.William Mckinley in 1895.' 'He served two enlistments in the Civil War and has an honorable discharge from each. Also a certificate of thanks from Abraham Lincoln.' 'As A member of the Grand Army of the the Republic, he belongs to the Bell Harmon Post of Warren.' 'As a Mason, he is a member of Western Reserve Lodge No. 507, F and A.M. He is also a member of Southinton Grange and of the Red Cross.' 'His occupation for the greater share of his life has been farming and stock raising in a small way, and for several years in a company with Lewis D. Stroup. He gave considerable attention to the manufacture of stave, lumber and ties. In the years 1872-73, he was mail carrier between Southington and Braceville Center, making the round trip many times on foot and carrying the pouch on his back.' 'Financially he is in very comfortable circumstances, but says jokingly that his 'income is mostly derived from annuities which cease at his death so that his administrator will have an easy time settling up his estate.' 'His life has been one of cheerful and helpful and manly service to his fellowman and to his town and country. He is of generous open-hearted, friendly disposition and held in the highest esteem and affection by his towns people, to who he is familiarly known as 'Uncle Lester.'' 'He entertains a great deal and everyone enjoys being invited to his hospitable home. In it he is enjoying a quiet, happy round of days. It is situated about a mile and a half north of Delightful and is known as 'Squirrel's Nest.''
