BiographyClark Ferguson Houghton (5/1/1926-still living) enlisted in the Air Corp. when he was 17 and was in the cadet program. But as the war was winding down he was sent to aviation mechanic school. From there he went to Seattle and Boeing B-29 school He was sent to Germany where he served in the army occupation. After discharge, he went to MO School of Mines (Now MU at Rolla) where he earned his BS in Civil Engineering. He has spent the last 54 years working for Shell or selling their products as a jobber. He married Orvalynn Francis Burns on September 2, 1950. She went to a one room school and her folks were farmers. They have two children – Lynda and Keith. My Grandfather (Bud) and Clark had a disagreement years ago and my side of the family has had no communication with Clark’s side of the family in my lifetime until this past summer (2007) when I reestablished contact. A lot of my knowledge of the Houghtons comes from Clark’s memory and records.
