HOUGHTON

Seth Houghton b. 1781-90 could be a son of Seth Houghton and Sarah Wheeler and b. c. 1783 Massachusetts. Seth first appears on the 1818 asessment list (compiled fall of 1819) of Jackson Township, Tioga County, Pennsylvania. On the 1820 assessment list, unable to pay for schooling of daughter Sally. Enumerated in Jackson in 1820 with three males under age ten (b. 1811-20), one male of age twenty six and under age forty five (b. 1776-94), one female under age ten (b. 1811-20), and one female of age twenty six and under age forty five (b. 1776-94). On the 1821 assessment list unable to pay for schooling of children Sally, Augustus, and Joseph; 1822, Sally and Augustus; 1823, Sally age 9, Augustus age 7, and Seth F. age 5. Enumerated in Rutland Township in 1830 with one male of age five and under age ten (b. 1821-25), one male of age ten and under age fifteen (b. 1816-20), one male of age fifteen and under age twenty (b. 1811-15), one male of age forty and under age fifty (b. 1781-90), three females under age five (b. 1826-30), one female of age five and under age ten (b. 1821-25), one female of age fifteen and under age twenty (b. 1811-25), and one female of age thirty and under age forty (b. 1791-1800). Seth appears on the 1832 assessment list of Sullivan Township with one cow. On the 1833 Sullivan assessment list is the notation “removed.” His neighbors in the 1830 census enumeration were the Curtis and Gifford families who embraced the Mormon faith and went west and perhaps also the reason the Houghton family removed from the area.

In an address given by Ross G. Watkins at the Old Rutland Hill Church on August 16, 1942 he stated – “One item which has seemingly escaped attention was the coming of two Mormon Elders and their flock to the scene. They strewed the countryside with their propaganda and soon the excitement was intense. Then more of them came until quite a colony was formed. After a bit, some opposition arose and they, with some of the settlers who embraced their faith, moved to near Liberty, Pa, where they founded the village of Nauvoo. (Meaning the beautiful.) There, more persecution arising, they moved to Illinois and founded a city also called Nauvoo in the year 1839. During a riot in 1844, Joseph Smith, the leader and his brother were killed and the building of their temple was stopped. Then Brigham Young led them on to Utah. During their stay here it seems they occupied this farm as I remember it, they left four of their number, two adults and two children to mingle with the dust on that knoll up there. As long as George Tanner owned this farm, he kept some field stones in place to mark their final resting place and inplaying around the old orchard as children, my cousin and I came upon them and were told by the old folks why they were there. What their names were or where they came from is all conjecture now but perhaps some older and abler
historian might be able to find out and if so, I would like to hear from them (History of the Old Rutland Church, Rutland Township, Tioga County, Pennsylvania, Ross G. Watkins, 1942).
