DOWNLOAD EBOOK →This biography contains the memoirs of 19th Century inventor and engineer Orley Clifton Houghton (1877-1965). His memoirs were hand-written and meant to be a brief history of the heritage of the Houghton family in Wisconsin, as well as an overview of Orley’s early work as an inventor, in designing and producing mechanized farm equipment. It discusses the hardships of 19th century life on a farm in Wisconsin and his career as an engineer. As one of Orley’s Grandsons, I believe this document should be preserved and shared with future generations. It is a fascinating and insightful window into 19th Century life.

From the Norman Conquest of England in 1066 AD, when our earliest ancestors first fought for William the Conquerer, to the 21st Century in America, this has been an epic adventure." "I have included a new chapter at the end of the book captioned '21st Century DNA Testing.' It provides, for the first time in print, fascinating information on the origins and lives of stone Age ancestors of the Houghton Family that lived in Europe over 300,000 years ago!" --from back cover.
