ObituaryNov 7, 1951Los Angeles, Los Angeles Co., CA, USA, NY Times: Stanley W. Houghton
Los Angeles, Nov. 6--Stanley W. Houghton, son of the youngest survivor of the ill-fated Donner party, died of a heart attack today at the age of 79. He was the son of the former Eliza P. Donner, who was rescued at the age of 4 from the snowed-in expedition in the High Sierras in 1848. Her parents, Capt. and Mrs. George P. Donner, perished. Mr. Houghton's father was Sherman Houghton, who came from New York around Cape Horn in 1847. He mined $18,000 in gold in seventeen days near Sonora, and then operated a store in the mining community for years thereafter. He served in Congress from 1871 to 1875.

BiographyMLM: They donated part of the home grounds to become Houghton Park in Long Beach. The old home was raised for part of the grounds, but the administration bldg. is condemned, being of large dimensions, but of wood. From "The Searcher,", a Southern CA Gen. Society, V. vi, #1, 1969, p. 5: "San Bernadino, CA, July 1908:
JWH: 'We find the following incident regarding Stanley W. in a California newspaper which, without his knowledge, we venture to copy, thinking it will have interest for many others than the members of the immediate family: San Bernadino, Cal., July 19, 1908. 'Hironymous Hortman, for twenty-five years the terror of the Mojave River country died with his boots on as many people predicted he would. His slayer was Stanley W. Houghton, aged 36, the manager of the Wyman Bailey Cement Company, a man of unquestionable courage. The killing was the result of a long series of encounters between Houghton and Hortman. Until Houghton went to take charge of the Cement Company's affairs, Hortman ruled the roost. He had so completely terrorized the people that he cut their ditches, or rather compelled the owners of water rights to cut them so that he might take their water to irrigater his lands and water his stock. He stole their cattle in years gone by and chaffed them because they did not have the nerve to protest. 'When Houghton came, a weak-eyed, slim young man, quiet and drawling in speech, Hortman immediately managed to cause an eruption over a land deal. It ended by his threat to kill Houghton. Last spring Hortman got drunk and took a shot at his sixteen year old step-daughter because she hid his wine jug. Houghton called the justice of the peace and constable cowards because they would not arrest him, and took the matter up before the grand jury, with the result that Hortman was indicted. His trial ended in conviction for assault with a deadly weapon and he had been released on bail pending sentence. 'He walked all night among the desolate hills of the desert country, and in the morning with glassy eyes, he attacked his wwife as the foundation of all his troubles. He blackened her eyes with the first blow he struck her and she ran screaming. 'Houghton, who had been recently made justice of the peace because he was the only one capable of coping with Hortman, was summoned. He secured a club and approached the Hortman home. Hortman saw him coming. He ran toward his house, paying no attention to the statement of Houghton that he was under arrest. Houghton pulled his own revolver and put three bullets through the man's body and he fell dead just within his own doorway. (If he could have reached the inside of his house and got hold of his gun he would have had Houghton at his mercy and he only saved his own life by prompt action.) 'The sentiment of the community of Oro Grande is with Houghton. William Kivettes, known as Buffalo Bill, whom Houghton had licked with his fists, and some of his friends are the only ones against him.3,7'

She has been president of the Young Woman's Missionary Society of Rutger's Presbyterian Church, and chairman of the young people's work of the Home Missionary Society. She was chairman and organizer of the county fair in 1909. In connection with the fair some interesting entertainments were given.

She has held office in the Shakespeare Club of New York City in which, from a very young girl, she has been very active.
