Burialcirca 1922Clinton Grove Cemetery, Mt. Clemens, MI, USA1
Researchthe burial receipt for Richard Houghton, my infant uncle, showing a close approximation to his death date. I have not located his new burial site as yet because the old Mt. Clements cemetery was located where the current main gate to Selfridge ANG Base is. I found this in papers my uncle George sent me from Grandma and Grandpa Houghton's collection of pictures and family papers. They never talked about Richard. I don't think he lived very long1
