When this web page was started, we
only knew of relatives from 2 of Josephs Sons and vaguely knew portions of
another. In the past year, we have added hundreds of relatives from lost
branches and gained new knowledge of our history and heritage. The new
information is being added but it is volumes and a slow process. This "Tree
Page" is intended to be a simple sketch or diagram of descendents. Look to
each persons bio-sheet for details.
Oliver
> Unknown
Although, there has not been specific documents to prove that Oliver is
Jonathans Father it is believed to be the correct name. The question is, which
Oliver.
Joseph 1770

The
following is a sketch of the family tree as it has progressed from the First Texas generation.
All of
Joseph & Mary's children were raised in Texas. However, Oscar was the
only one born in Texas. Until the past 20 years, most of Josephs descendents have been born or raised in Texas. However, Some have relocated
in other states, mostly California, Oregon, & Nevada. To my knowledge none
have ever gone back to Michigan. The
Houghton seeds have been planted and took root in many places. The tree
flourished and continues to produce many wonderful fruit.
The tree's structure today
can best be illustrated by separate colors for each generation of off-spring of the five
sons of Joseph. I Have numerically identified the five sons of Joseph & Mary
in the order of their birth. Select the bookmark to go direct to that
branch or browse through the entire tree
"The
future of our family depends on the type and amount of nurturing it gets from
the roots to the new fruit. We as individuals, are a single
ring on each on their tree and must nurture each part if the tree
survives. We are a part of one of many trees in a forest of trees but
fortunately we are all one ring in the tree of life. Coming from a long
line of farmers we know that sometimes limbs break or fruit is soured and that
is subject to natural forces but by the grace of God we be not pruned and
destroyed."
