ResearchPicturesque Putney: "The farm [Houghton] was one of the earliest settled pieces of land in the town and was purchased by the ancestors of the present proprietor from Peter Stuyvesant, the Dutch Governor of New York, when this section of territory was a part of New York. The Houghton family is directly descended from the three brothers, William, John and Thomas, who came from England to Lancaster, Mass., in the early days of New England. It will thus be seen that this family have been resident in this locality nearly 200 years. "
