BiographyA Sketch of my Mother's Life Catherine Burrows by John Thomas Houghton

My mother's maiden name was Catherine Burrows. She was born in Swannington, Leicestershire, England. Her father's name was Herbert Burrows and her mother's maiden name was Sarah Ann Ward. She had six sisters and five brothers making twelve children. She has one sister and two brothers living [at the time of this writing]. She attended Sunday School and reached the fourth grade in public school She had to help take care of the family while her mother did the shopping, etc.

She met father at a carnival where he asked her to ride the merry-go-round with he and his sister. She did, after which he escorted her home. They were sweethearts for five years before they were married. He being twenty-one and she nineteen years of age. They lived in Heather, Leicestershire, England. Eight children were born to this union, five of which died when small and are buried in England. I have two brothers living here in Castle Gate.

My mother and father were converted to the church and emigrated to this county where they settled in Castle Gate, Utah. She had a brother, Arthur Burrows already here when she arrived. My oldest brother Charles Arthur was born in England and was small when they came to Castle Gate. Here Wilfred and myself were born.9
