<body class='hmmessage'><div dir='ltr'>Hello Cousins:<BR>
<BR>
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...<BR>
<BR>
Zeno & Charlotte Hough were my ggg-grandparents, thru their daughter Louisa who married James Samuel Gieger of Covington County MS. <BR>
<BR>
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.<BR>
<BR>
May all of you have a very Merry Christmas...and a Blessed New Year.<BR>
<BR>
Gerry Gieger<BR> <BR>
PS: I am planning to submit an Autosomal test sample before years' end.<BR>

<DIV dir=ltr>Hello, from Houston, where it's 72 - for a change. I am now 83 and a half (and going less strong)!
<DIV>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. </DIV>
<DIV>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. </DIV>
<DIV>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!</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>Best Wishes to all the Houghs and our ancestors. </DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>Max Huff </DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>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. </DIV></DIV>
