Birthcirca 1782England1

Death1850Elvetham, Hampshire, England1
BiographyDianne Houghton Scoles: We have not been able to establish the birthplace or parents of Stephen Houghton. It is rumored that he was the illegitimate son of one of the Calthorpe-Goughs and there is some circumstantial evidence to support that theory since he was appointed land agent for their estate at Elvetham and all of his children were educated and started in business by the
Calthorpe-Gough family. One of the stories has him born in the United States to an American mother, possibly a Florence Houghton, who was abandoned by the Calthorpe father. According to that story, the Calthorpe-Goughs brought he and his mother to England c 1800 and took care of him. I have searched early US census but the early ones do not provide enough detail to give us anything definite. Since there are other stories in the family having Stephen born in England, there is that area to research as well. I have of course searched parish records, directories, poor law records, wills, etc. but have never found anything to confirm any of these stories.1
ResearchHoughton descendent has haplogroup RM269; A documented male-line descendant, James Robert Houghton (REFN 94812), was tested at 37 Y-STR markers and returned haplogroup R-M269, consistent with English ancestry. Neil Henry Knevitt Houghton (REFN 108724; b. 26 March 1961, England), whose documented line descends from Anthony Holton of England (REFN 110250, b. abt. 1667), returned a result at genetic distance 1 from a descendant of Stephen Houghton at 37 markers — suggesting a possible common ancestor within several generations, though no documentary connection between the two lines has been established."
