In older genealogies, he is said to be a son, born Dec 24,1624, of John Houghton Jr and Damaris (Buckminster) Houghton of Eaton Bray, Co.Bedfordshire, England. However, this has not been proven. The later cenotaphic monument (see photo at left), posted with the suspect birth date, is therefore possibly incorrect. For information on the search for his origins, please consult The Houghton Surname Project.
