Soon after their marriage they settled on the farm home east of the village where all but the youngest of their children were born.

The deceased was a member of the local Baptist church and a charter member of the Rebekah lodge, the members of which attended the funeral services in a body. She was also a loving and devoted mother and has been tenderly cared for by the daughter and other children during the days of suffering. Soon after the husband's death, Mrs. Houghton suffered a stroke of paralysis, from which she never completely recovered.

The last of her immediate family she is survived by the following children: Ray, Mrs. Hoeppner, Mrs. Bert Hiliker, Howard, Clarence and Earle of Perry and Kenneth of Rochester and eleven grandchildren.

The funeral services were very largely attended from the home Sunday afternoon at 2:30 o'clock, her pastor, Rev. J. B. Freestone officiating. The bier was surrounded with beautiful flowers. Her sons acted as bearers and carried her to the family lot in Hope cemetery where she was laid by the husband.

Friends from out of town at the services were: Mrs. R. W. Duncan and Miss E. A. Johnson of Lockport; Mr. and Mrs. Arthur Paulson and daughter Madeline of Hilton; Mr. and Mrs. Arthur Agar and daughter Alice of Honeoye Falls; Mr. and Mrs. Leon Head and Frank Gath, Sr., of Attica; and Mrs. Frank Violtele of Bradford, Pa.
