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

Thu Dec 19 07:46:05 PST 2013

Hello Cousins:

I have not done much on my Hough lineage since Cousin Granville passed...but when you find out from the DNA where we came from, I also am in that group...

Zeno & Charlotte Hough were my ggg-grandparents, thru their daughter Louisa who married James Samuel Gieger of Covington County MS. 

I am also collaterally related to Rev. James Wilson West thru their daughters Mary Jane and Charlotte...and West's thru other avenues...that is, I have West's who are Cousins to me, eight different ways.

May all of you have a very Merry Christmas...and a Blessed New Year.

Gerry Gieger

PS:   I am planning to submit an Autosomal test sample before years' end.

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.

Today Granville Hough would have been 91 years old.    That is an impossibly
old age for men in my line.

One wonders how his grandchildren will fare.     Will advances in medical
technology outpace the advances in terrorist technology and the
cumulative effects of climate change, pollution, global spread of contagious
diseases, and other results of population growth that Granville worried
about?

We all need to keep doing the best we can and hoping and praying for the best.
