To: Charles Vella
My maiden name was Houghton, a name which would have been Southwick, except that Southwick tended to identify its bearers as Quakers and Quakers were persecuted in Canada and the US in the 1800s.

Because of the persecution of Quakers, my great grandfather, Ezra Southwick (1822-1896) changed his name to George Houghton, taking the surname of his Mother, Lydia Houghton. He settled in Massachusetts in the area now known as Hudson.
George Houghton became a powerful shoe manufacturer. There is a lot of information on the web about the role of George Houghton in that industry on the web.

There is also a lot of information about the persecution of the Quaker family of Lawrence and Cassandra Southwick from the 1630s when they first arrived in the US. They are interred along with other Quakers in the Quaker cemetery on Shelter ISland, NY.
.... I hope that the above may be of some interest.
