Biography

Elizabeth, then married to Luther Houghton came to this town in 1836, and after living with her father's folks two or three years, they moved to their land on section 1. Mr. Houghton died about twenty-eight years ago, and his widow after a time was married again, her second husband being John Lane, who died in this town in 1878. She is still living in town, but is an invalid suffering from a broken back, caused by her slipping and falling across a door-step, about two years ago." From 1880 Livingston County history.
