BiographyLieutenant Colonel Jean Houghton, USA (Ret.)
A native of Boston and a graduate of St. Margaret's Hospital School of Nursing in Dorchester, Jean Houghton is the daughter and sister of Navy veterans. However, Lt. Col. Jean Houghton broke with family tradition and opted to serve her country by enlisting in the Army. Though Lt. Col. Houghton served in Korea after the War, she saw plenty of action during the Korean Revolution in 1959 and 1960, which provided excellent preparation for front line nursing in Vietnam in 1966 and 1967. During her 28 years of service, Lt. Col. Houghton did, indeed, "see the world," with tours of duty in Germany, France, and Japan, in addition to Korea, and Vietnam. Stateside, the Lt. Col. served in various locations west of the Mississippi, with a final assignment at Fort Devins in Massachusetts. A model of Yankee ingenuity, Lt. Col. Houghton enjoyed the challenge of adapting, improvising, and creating equipment in the difficult and restricted conditions of war. Home at last, she provides a family anchor for her 10 nieces and nephews and fifteen great nieces and nephews.

BiographyLiz Houghton Cunha, 2012: Dad is dealing with dementia & is really disoriented. I knew he would be messed up after spending a month up here in Massachusetts. He has been home in Florida for 3 weeks now,anyway,he is at the point where he still remembers the past. Through the years he has told us many stories of his childhood(boy what a movie this disfuntional family would make) You have all the information that I know of concerning dad's side of the family. We honestly didn't know about his 1/2 brothers & sisters from Florida until 10 or so years ago and dad was not one to speak much about them. He was very emotional about the situation. He, Virginia & Jean were all scarred from the scandal that his father brought them into. They remember the fights of Florence & Casco concerning Amy and was ridiculed all through their school years..you see...Amy was a school teacher in the city of Boston & was having an affair & a child (children) out of wedlock. The school actually changed their rules because of her.

HOUGHTON, Harry Age 86, passed away peacefully at home on April 14, 2008. Harry was able to say goodbye to Olwyn ''Winnie'', his wife of 62 years, his children Michael and Carol, and grandsons David, Ben, Peter, and Patrick. Born in Yorkshire, England, on May 24, 1922, Harry served in the Royal Air Force repairing the electrical systems in planes. After WWII, Harry, Olwyn, and their son Michael moved to Ontario, Canada, where their daughter Carol was born. Following a brief two years in Texas the family came to California in 1961. Harry always said he wished he had come here first. After retiring as an electrician in 1988 from Stanford Linear Accelerator, Harry and his wife enjoyed traveling and spending summers at their cabin at Lake Tahoe. Always an early riser, he loved to watch the sun rise over the mountain at their cabin. Harry loved animals, reading, doing household repairs, and spending time with his family and friends. He was a quiet man, and those who knew him enjoyed his dry sense of British humor. The family would like to thank Snowline Hospice for its caring support.1
