Born on 25 2 1853 she died about 1912 aged 58.
From an old bible dated 1648, Georgina Houghton copied out some notes on early Houghton history for Bertha, who wrote:-
“Aunt Georgina copied these out and sent me a copy. "This George Houghton must have been Papa's (our Grandfather’s) great-grandfather born 1709. Papa's (our grandfather) grandfather may have been born about 1734, he died before he was twenty leaving one son Charles (our grandfather's father) probably born about 1755, as he married early and his eldest son Charles was born in 1776, Ben Oakes 1777, George (Papa) (our grandfather) December 1778 and James 1784. Aunt Georgina adds: the daughter's births I know not"
Latterly stayed with Bernard Houghton and died at his house.
