Children of John Houghton and Esther Tarbell: 1) Jonathan [#448], b. "2, 21 [sic], 1761", m. Harvard, MA, Rachel Hale.
[Note: another Jonathan [#161], s/o Israel Houghton and Martha Wheelock, b. 1743 (p. 316, see Person:Jonathan Houghton (5)), is given the same marriage and the children recorded in Waterford (p. 338), while Jonathan #448 is only given son Josiah (p. 375). This is clearly wrong as shown by the age on the gravestone.]
