On Nov 13, 1839 he married Cynthia Washburn and together they started life in the wilderness of St. Lawrence Co, building them a log cabin. Mr. & Mrs Houghton lived in St. Lawrence County for 18 yrs then moved back to Washington County and lived there until he died at his home in Liverpool aged nearly 87 years. He was for years one of the best known dealers in cattle in the state. Mr. Houghton was a Republican. He had been a member of the Methodist Church for over 50 years and for 40 years he had been a class leader. He leaves one son and four daughters - Chester Houghton and Emily Houghton of Liverpool; Mrs. Jewett M. DeLong and Mrs. George W. Morgan of Syracuse, and Mrs. C.
