Albany, Albany Co., NY, USA, Times Union, The (Albany, NY) - September 28, 2001
Deceased Name: HOUGHTON, ELVAH F.
SARATOGA SPRINGS -- Elvah F. Houghton passed on in her 92nd year, on September 25, 2001 at the Wesley Health Care Center in Saratoga Springs, NY. She was the daughter of the late Clinton and Laura French of Amsterdam, NY. She attended public school in Amsterdam and later Syracuse, NY, graduating from Central High School as valedictorian of her class in 1928, after which she attended secretarial school. In 1931 she married her husband of 49 years, the late Alfred T. Houghton. She resided with her family in Holland, Red Creek, Slingerlands and New Baltimore, NY. In 1981 after the death of her husband, she moved to Embury Apartments in Saratoga Springs. She was a homemaker and much loved mother, grandmother and great-grandmother. The strong devotion to her church and dedication to the many friends she had gave her much satisfaction throughout her life. She is survived by her daughter, Janet Houghton Ingraham and her husband, Hon. Irad S. Ingraham of Voorheesville, NY; and her son, Bruce A. Houghton and his wife, Cheryl A. Houghton of Voorheesville, NY. She is also survived by five grandchildren, John Ingraham of Denver, CO, Richard Ingraham of Cromwell, CT, Laurel Ann Welch of East Greenbush, Kristin Houghton of Cohoes and Theodore Houghton of Glenmont. Also surviving are four great-granddaughters and several relatives in Ontario, Canada. A memorial service will be held Saturday, September 29 at 2:00 p.m. in the Chapel of the Wesley Health Care Center, 131 Lawrence St., Saratoga Springs, NY. In lieu of flowers, those wishing to make a donation in Elvah's memory may contribute to the Embury Memorial Fund, 133 Lawrence St., Saratoga Springs, NY 12866.²
