Mrs. Gertrude Houghton, 73, of 43 Mansfield Avenue, widow of Orange Guy Houghton, died on Friday afternoon after a lingering illness at a local hospital. She was born in England, December 11, 1885, the daughter of Joseph and Emma (Cox) Green. She had made her home here in i the village for the past 10 years. She is survived by two sisters, Mrs. Alice Kenfield of this village and Mrs. Constance Stearns of So. Burlington, and two brothers, Sidnev Green, Enosburg Falls, and Buell Green of Hartford.

ResearchDexter Kenfield: He married Edith Gertrude Green. Her sister was my grandmother.
As to her, you have her as "Gertrude E." Instead, Edith Gertrude is correct; I've seen her birth certificate from England. She was generally known as Gertrude or Gert, and is so listed in some records, including census (probably your source). I knew her as my "Aunt Gertie" (actually, my great-aunt.) She was born in Hallow, Worcestershire, England. (Your Web site has it as Windsor.) Your birth and death dates are correct. She died in Essex, Chittenden County, Vermont. (The site simply has "Chittenden, VT" which suggests the town of Chittenden in Rutland County, in another part of the state.) I played on her farm in Essex as a child.1
