DeathDec 21, 1865Bolton, Worcester Co., MA, USA, Whitcomb: 21 Dec 1863; Given as death date of step mother Mary T. Danforth; The death records show this Mary's parents as Cephas & Mary W. Houghton. She listed as 45 years of age & her birth place as Waltham. The death record says she was 'single'.7,8
BurialBolton Pan Cemetery, Bolton, Worcester Co., MA, USA, ae 46
ResearchJim Anderson: Almost certainly did not marry Thomas Dix
Right now I have no proof that 'our' Mary Houghton did not marry Thomas Dix, but I offer these points for consideration.

1. Cephas & family appear in the 1830 U.S. Census in Warner, Merrimack, New Hampshire. I say that Mary is the female in that census that is 10yrs but less than 15. This shows that Cephas and family moved from Waltham sometime before 1830.

2. Cephas & family appear in the 1840 U.S Census in Bolton MA. Since the last census Mary W. (Goodnow) Houghotn has died and Cephas has married Mary T. Danforth. In this census I say that our Mary is the female listed as 20 and not 30. If our Mary was married in April of 1840 why is she appearing in this census with her father & new step mother.

3. As you note she appears in the 1850 census again in Cephas's household as Mary Houghton not as Mary Dix.
4. Same thing for the 1860 census.
5. Mary's death record from the Bolton VR's says she was single & again her name is Mary Houghton not Dix.
6. In her Will she is refered to only as Mary Houtghton.8
