Barnes Man is approaching century mark

Hiram T. Houghtan has celebrated his 93rd birthday at his home in Barnes Sept. 7th. Comrades Captain Henry V. Partidge, L. B. Learn, Henry Howard, B. D. Tome Isaac Culbertson, A. Glendenning, John Reeger, Charles Lyon and .J. R. Mitchell, (nine of the surviving members of Co. H. 10th Pennsylvaniia Reserves, with whom Mr. lfoughton served three years during the war, spent the day with him.

After telling stories and recounting reminiscences of th.e war, they were called to the dining room, where covers were laid for ten. After they had partalen of a bountiful dinner, J. R. Mitchell with appropriate remarks, and in behalf of the surviving members of Co. H. presented Mr. Houghton with a beautiful solid gold "regulation badge" watch charm.

Captain Partridge who came from bis home in Norwich, Vermont, especially to attend this birthday anniversary, then made some very impressive remarks, after which Mrs. F. E. Foster read a beautiful and very interesting letter written by George W. Trask to be read to his comrades on this occasion.

They then elected officers, passed some resolutions and adjourned to the porch where they were joined by comrades, A. Secor, Jerry Borden, James Blake, and Warren man of Sheffield members of Rudolph Post of which Mr. Houghton is also a member. Mr. Secor then made the presentation to Mr. Houghton of a large and very handsome leather covered rocker, a gift from Rudolph Pratt Post. It was a red letter day to all present as well as to tile comrades who seem bound together by the strongest ties. They missed George W. Demming who was unable to be present on account of his duties as sexton in Oakland cemetery.

Mr. Houghton, although a little feeble in body, keeps his mind: bright and we wish him many more happy birthdays.17

ResearchFrom 2nd ggrandson Joe Stout: This is an extract from an article I found about it.

"No other family assumes a more important role in establishing the early history of the township than the Houghtons. Hiram Thompson Houghton, born in 1816, progenitor of the family, was the son of Josiah Houghton of Aurelius, Cayuga County, New York. The father died when Hiram was fourteen years of age, leaving him as the eldest son of a family of six. In 1837, at the age of twenty-one, he settled in Cherry Grove with his uncle, Thomas Farnsworth.

Hiram Houghton's first wife was Sally Ann Aber, daughter of Silas Aber who settled in Cherry Grove in 1833 near the Farnsworth farm..36 Silas Aber appears first on the tax list for the year 1838, assessed for lots 661 and 669, and the following year for an additional lot, 695. The Abers came from New York State, and after the death of his wife, Silas Aber returned to New York and left his property to his son who remained on it until his death in 1873. The property went to his heirs."57 The 1850 census names the following Abers in Cherry Grove Township: Henry C. (Cooper), born 1816, New York; Anna E., born 1816, Connecticut; Darius, born 1836, New York; and Calistia, born 1839, New York. Darius held Civil War service."

The children of Hiram and Sally Ann Houghton were! Phoebe - I. born 1842; William H.. born 1844; Mary Ann, born 1846; and Ann Eliza, born 1849. Hiram-T, Houghton married as his second wife, Jane Ann Farnsworth, and their children were: Ada A., born 1851; Marvil M. A., born 1853; and Asa Josiah, born 1855. Both Hiram and his son William H. served in the armed forces during the Civil War. The diary notes of the father, dating from 1854 to 1877, and his letters are given attention in chapters following. The diary l constitutes a most important and significant addition to our local history.

A complete transcription of the original diary was made by the late Byron Barnes Horton, and it is from this copy 'that the abstracts as they appear herein have been produced. The group of excerpts are presented through the kind permission of Miss Ariel Houghton of Barnes, Pennsylvania, and Mrs. L. C. Hassinger, Bristol, Virginia, who has in her possession the original diary copy. Miss Houghton and Mrs. Hassinger are granddaughters of Hiram T. Houghton, the compiler. Information concerning the Houghton family in the early days of the township has been previously related in Chapter V."21
