Biography

Born in Boston, Massachusetts in 1933, the son of Hayward S, Houghton and Marian Elizabeth Holden Houghton.

Grew up in Acton, Massachusetts and graduated from Cornell University (Economics).

U. S. Navy in the 1950's (Korean War)

Married to Barbara Fife in Jefferson City, MO - 1957

Parents were both deeply involved in genealogy, so I have been exposed to family history for most of my life.

Have lived in a number of places over the years, however. I currently reside in Pennsylvania.

Major interests: include sailing, travel, the Red Sox and family history

Hi Hayward,

Thanks for your contributions to Puritan Great Migration (PGM) project profiles.

Like all WikiTree projects we check in with team members periodically to find out about their continued interest in the project. Would you please respond by February 5, 2024, to let us know about your interest:

  1. Would you like to continue as a PGM project team member?;
  2. Do you have any suggestions for PGM Project priorities in the next year (optional)?;
  3. Do you have interest in taking a more active role within the PGM project, and if so, what you might be interested in doing (optional)?

Please respond to this comment on your profile, or if you'd like, send a private message to either Bobbie (Madison) Hall or S (Hill) Willson.

Thanks for all you do for PGM and WikiTree!

Regards,

Bobbie and Sharon, Co-Leaders, Puritan Great Migration Project

Hi -

1. I am very much interested in continuing my participation in the PGM Project. Chase Ashley's app tells me that I have something over 460 PGM people in my tree, so the activities in the world of PGM are of significant interest to me.

2. I have no particular suggestions as to project priorities for 2024.

3. Much as I would like to, I do not feel that I can take on a more active role at this time due to my age (will be 91 next month) and the resulting health considerations.

Thanks. Hayward

Thanks for your speedy reply, Hayward, and we appreciate your continued interest in the Project, and anything your research can add to PGM or anywhere on WT and understand when members aren't able to be "full-time WikiTree-ers." Best wishes!

Hi, Mary -

I am definitely interested in continuing my connection with the Military and War Project and its associated Civil War Project, My most recent effort in this area was the development of a proflle for Daniel Cooledge Fletcher-11677, a Civil War veteran' which I worked up in late December, 2023.

Earlier in the year (January. 2023), I worked up one for Edward Potter Sanderson-5289 (a cousin and WWII veteran}

Regards, Hayward

Hi Hayward, Glad your staying in the project. If ever you make a free space for your diaries, there's a category: US Civil War Heirlooms, where they would go nicely :) Pam

Hi Hayward, I just wanted to thank you for all the work you've done to improve the US Civil War Between the States Project. I'm doing a check-in with all project members and wanted to verify that you're still interested in being a member of the project. Also, any suggestions for the Project would be welcome. I'm looking forward to hearing from you.

P Kreutzer, US Civil War Between the States Project Leader.

Hello Hayward, you and I are cousins many many times over :-) . Just to let you know I am currently updating some members of our early Pennsylvania Simeon Woodrow family line. It's an interesting challenge because this is one of those family lines where the records of one member cross-applies to many others which means I have to have three or four profiles in edit mode at the same time in order to get full use out of the vital record. Hope all is well with you and if you have any questions about my work please don't hesitate to ask, point out mistakes or add unique source content. Sincerely, Leigh Anne
Hayward, thanks for the recent improvements you've been making lately to PGM profiles. Much appreciated. -- Jillaine, co-leader, PGM project
