[Granville-Hough] Granville-Hough Digest, Vol 19, Issue 1

[Max Huff]

Hello, from Houston, where it's 72 - for a change.  I am now 83 and a half
(and going less strong)!
We are still doing research that was stated and pushed along, by Granville.
I also email often with . Barbara Roesch, who lives just a bit south of
Laguna Beach. She is of the Carolina Houghs and was encouraged by your
father to write a book on that group.
As for myself, we have continued to make pregress on "our" kineage. Aside
fron your father's cousin John Emile Hough, I was his closest Y-DNA  match.
I have at lease found my Immigrant ancestor. He was William Hough, who came
in 1640, from Cheshire, to Gloucester, Mass.  and then to New London, CT.
He had a large family and I have been sucessfulin finding documents that
tie my line to him. It is very possible that Granville is also of that
lineage, although we could find a direct line ti William. The Cheshire
Houghs were numeruous and quite a few came to America - including Richard
Hough, who came at the invitation of William Penn. Granville alwaysthought
he would be linked directly to Richard, but not yet.  However, we are still
working on it.
In our Huff/Hough group, we all think of Granville as the one who started
the ball rolling and accomplished so much in his lifetime. I'm sure he is
watching us!

Best Wishes to all the Houghs and our ancestors.

Max Huff

P.S. my direct line changed their surname spelling during the 2nd and 3rd
generations in this country. From Hough to Hoofe, then to Huff.
