BiographyThomas St. John, Brattleboro History Website: George Harper Houghton was born in Putney, Vermont on May 11, 1826.

His father was Henry Hamilton Houghton, who had served a seven-year apprenticeship in carpentry and mechanics in Montreal, Canada. Henry Houghton built the pulpit and some of the front pews for the Dummerston Meeting House in 1817.

His mother was Sarah "Sally" Perry, the daughter of Dr. William Perry of Putney, Brookline, and Newfane, Vermont.

George Harper Houghton married Emma Rockwood Ward of West Brattleboro on July 27, 1846 and their marriage lasted until her death of consumption eight years later, at the age of twenty nine, on February 5, 1855. Houghton was studying the daguerreotype art with John L. Lovell during the three years following 1852.

The rapidly succeeding deaths of his sister, his wife, his daughter, and finally his brother, all during 1854 to 1856, followed by the rippling effects of the Panic of 1857, sent George Houghton briefly to Kilbourn City, Wisconsin, now called Wisconsin Dells. He is remembered there for purchasing and setting up the first planing mill. Houghton lived by carpentry his entire life.

He returned to Brattleboro in November 1859 and established his photography studio in the Granite Block along the east side of Main Street. The first floor of the Granite Block now houses two emporia---Mystery On Main Street, and Delectable Mountain, at 119 and 125 Main Street, respectively.

Houghton's advertisements refer specifically to No. 2 Granite Block, which is the central portion of the original building. His studio was on the third floor, which at that time did not have the top brick front which is seen now. The great skylight on the third floor, which was so necessary for providing light for Houghton's photographic process, was added to the original building at some time before 1861.

The original Granite Block comprised the row of seven windows seen to the right in this engraving, with straight lintels, and two symmetrical chimneys perched above these seven windows. The north chimney was removed at some time between 1840 and September 1850.

George Harper Houghton arrived ten years after this engraving.Houghton bought a one-acre lot of land in Centreville on the south side of Western Avenue in 1862 and built a house on it. It was later owned by Carl Hopkins the Florist, with a greenhouse attached. This lot is now empty and wooded, three hundred feet or so west of the interstate highway.

Propping his camera in one of the higher windows on the north face of the Anthony Van Doorn house, George Houghton canted his appartus at an angle to his left for the long view along Main Street. His glassplate measures thirty-two by thirty-seven centimeters, or nine by ten and a half inches. The complete lack of long shadows in the photograph indicates that Houghton chose high noon.

George Harper Houghton is remembered for his photographs taken during the Peninsular Campaign in Virginia, in the War Between the States, following the 2nd Vermont Regiment to Camp Griffin in November 1861, and to Wolf Run Shoals in April 1863. Houghton photographed scores of veterans during June 1864 with the return of the 8th Vermont Regiment to Brattleboro.

Houghton entrusted his photographic establishment to J. M. Gilmore in May 1866.
He died in Kilbourn City, Wisconsin on July 7,1870.

NoteFrom "The William Ward Genealogy", 1925, p.372: "He was a photographer during the Civil War, attached to the Vermont troops in Virginia, and he made a large collection of military views of all kinds. A set is in the possession of the Historical Society of the State of Vermont. After the war he opened a studio in Brattleboro, and employed a considerable staff for the printing, enlarging, and coloring of photographs and other pictures."14
NotableBrattleboro, Windham Co., VT, USA, George Harper Houghton, who was Ruth (Houghton) Barton's (43718) great grand uncle, was a photographer and went south during the Civil War and took pictures. Many of his pictures are in the VT Historical Society in Montpelier. Some of his photos were used by Ken Burns in his documentary of the Civil War.

? He is mentioned on pages 114/115 of Howard Coffin's "Full Duty" and has several photos in the book. George had a shop on Main Street, Brattleboro and became a highly respected photographer of war scenes. After peace came he went west and died in Minnesota 1870.

These 2 are father and son. Along with his cousin Geroge Bennett: both lived in Kilbourne WI and became famous for their photographs of the Dells of WI.16,17
