Biography

David Carl Houghton: Notes for George Albert Houghton:
Adapted from a biography written by Leo Albert Houghton:

He met his wife after arriving in Eureka looking for work in the booming mining operation there. He shied away from social situations and preferred to be at home with his family. He worked long, late hours as a miner and was remembered by his wife as being very devoted to his family and determined to provide a living for them. One night as he was walking home from work, he saw a fire in the distance and thought, "some poor family is being burned out tonight." As he came closer he realized it was his own home that was burning, and was completely destroyed. His elder son remembered him carrying him several miles to a doctor in the dark after the boy had been severely injured. George loved baseball, and referred to his younger son as "my little man", which led to Leo being nicknamed "Manny". George died young from kidney disease.³
