(VII) George Russell Dwelley, son of Lem- uel Dwelley (6), was born at Hanover, Massa- chusetts, December 5, 1829, and died at Arling- ton, Massachusetts, April 13, 1901. He was of Puritan descent on both sides of the family. He attended the district school and Hanover Academy, and entered Phillips Academy at Andover, Massachusetts, where he fitted for college. He entered Yale college with the fa- mous class of 1853, and attended three years, but then went to Harvard, where he studied a year and graduated at that institution. Presi- dent Elliot graduated with the same class. His first chum at college was Edmund Clarence Stedman, the poet and critic. In his sopho- more year at Yale he became associated with Joseph Ashley Welch, who in 1860 was candi- date for city attorney in New York City, but was beaten by B. K. Phelps, another class-
mate. His third year chum was John S. Marmaduke, who was president of the college debating society, and later major general of the Confederate army. In Harvard his chum was Captain Crawford, of the Confederate army. After graduating from Harvard he taught school at Hanover and Hingham, Mas- sachusetts, and later became principal of the Rockland high school, where he remained till 1862. He then accepted a similar position at the Watertown, Massachusetts, high school, remaining until 1866. He then resigned to take the position of treasurer of the Copper Falls Mining Company at Copper Falls, Michi- gan. He returned to Watertown to marry one of his former pupils who had graduated under him. They returned to Michigan and stayed at Copper Falls three years. At the urgent request of the Watertown school committee, he again returned in 1871 and became principal as before until 1874, when he resigned. He then became treasurer of the Mechanics' Sav- ings Bank in Boston, where he remained until the great financial crash a few years later. Mr. Dwelley then taught in Lexington for four years as principal of the high school, and in 188I went back to Watertown to his old posi- tion. In 1884 he was elected superintendent of schools in Watertown and filled both positions until 1896, and was also superintendent of schools at Groton in 1897, when he resigned from professional activities. He taught in all in Watertown twenty-five years. He was a brilliant and at the same time a thorough stu- dent, as well as a teacher of exceptional ability, and the title "The Old Man" which was so familiar to the pupils of his later years, carried with it in the minds of his scholars no disre- spect, but rather a spirit of deep regard and veneration. He was especially fond of his home. He was a member of the Arlington Heights Land Company, and president of the Village Improvement Society. He was an at- tendant at the Arlington Congregational church. He was always a Republican. In early life he was town clerk at Hanover. He was a member of the Eagle Harbor, Michigan, lodge of Masons. He belonged to the Asso- ciation of School Superintendents of Boston.

John Houghton, the im- HOUGHTON migrant ancestor of this family, is believed to be the son of Thomas and Katherine Houghton, and nephew of Sir Richard Houghton, Tower, England. He was born about 1631, in Lan- cashire, and came to this country at the age of four years in the ship "Abigail," of Lon- don. A certificate of two justices and the minister of Eaton Bray near Dunstable, coun- ty Bedford, England, is on the custom house records. He spent his youth in Dedham, Massachusetts, and about 1652, settled in Lancaster. His first home in that town was on Dean's brook, between Clinton and South Lancaster. After the massacre in King Phil- ip's war he settled on the old common south of the road and nearly opposite the present reform school. He acquired much land in what is now Berlin, Clinton and Bolton. He owned the land from Clamshell Pond to the William Fife lands, thence southward includ- ing Baker Hill. He was a prominent citizen, a deputy of Lancaster to the general court in 1690 and several years afterward. He mar- ried Beatrix During the King Philip's war he and his family retreated to Woburn.

(VI) Samuel Storms Houghton, son of Peter Houghton (5), was born September 10, 1824, in the town of Fairlee, Orange county, Vermont. He was educated in the common schools, and spent his early youth chiefly in farming on his father's place in his native town. He came to Boston when he was only fourteen years old to live with his brother George W. Houghton, who was engaged in the wholesale dry goods trade. He attended the public schools in Boston two years, and then became a clerk in his brother's store. In 1848 he started in business for himself with a small store in Lamb's Hotel, Washington street, Boston, having a stock of fancy goods. He established a flourishing business, and after five years located at 70 and 72 Tremont street, the site of the new addition to the Parker House and of the Tremont Building. For a short time he was in partnership with George Brooks, but the firm was dissolved by his part- ner's death. In 1858 Mr. Houghton became a partner of R. H. Macy, his brother-in-law, in the dry goods business in New York City. After remaining in New York five years he withdrew from Mr. Macy's house and returned to Boston, where he had retained his interests in the business he had established on Tremont street. The firm of S. S. Houghton & Com- pany then became Houghton, Dutton & Com- pany, and the foundation of the present de- partment store was laid in the building at 55 Tremont street, nearly opposite the former location. The Albion Building was added to the store. From time to time enlargements and improvements have been made in the buildings occupied by the business, which has for many years attained mammoth proportions. The Houghton, Dutton Company, the name of the present corporation, is one of the largest and most successful department stores of Bos- ton. The success of this department store is due chiefly, if not entirely, to the force of character and business ability of the founder. Mr. Houghton knew the dry goods business from top to bottom, and he kept abreast of the times ; he was shrewd, farsighted and keen in buying. He knew the popular taste, and his
store attracted the masses. He was a large and successful advertiser in the daily news- papers, and the name of his firm is one of the most familiar to the readers of newspapers of the department stores of New England. He was enterprising, original and adventurous along the legitimate lines of business. He made a fortune in business. Largely self-edu- cated, he made his own way in the world, and his life affords a brilliant example of a self- made man, of a brilliant mercantile career, and of the possibilities for the young men in busi- ness who have the degree of industry, courage and perseverance that distinguished Mr. Houghton.
He resided in Melrose, Massachusetts, from January, 1849, to the date of his death, July 6, 1893, with the exception of the five years he spent in New York City. He was an active member and a generous contributor to the charities of the Congregational church of Mel- rose. In politics he was an earnest and loyal Republican, though he confined his attention during his active years to business, excluding ambition for public honors and other distinc- tion to make successful his main purpose. Mr. Houghton had a very fine stock farm at Or- ford, New Hampshire, and took much pleasure in conducting the farm and raising stock. He was a prominent Free Mason, a member of Wyoming Lodge and of the Knights Templar.
He married, October 27, 1846, at Lyme, New Hampshire, Mary Cross Converse, daughter of Marquis and Electa (White) Con- verse, and a lineal descendant of Edward Converse, of Charlestown and Woburn, who came to Massachusetts Bay in 1630; was dea- con, town officer and of large influence; the proprietor of the first ferry between Boston and Charlestown. Marquis Converse was a farmer and teacher, and held various offices in Lyme, New Hampshire, including that of selectman; he was born in Lyme, July 12, 1779, and died there November 21, 1840. Mrs. Houghton resides at the home in Melrose. They had two children: I. Edward Howard, born June 17, 1851; mentioned below. 2. Mary Alice, born April 28. 1856; educated at William's private school, in Boston, and in the Melrose high school; married October 17, 1877, Harry Dutton Jr., partner in the firm of Houghton & Dutton, (see Dutton family); children: i. Marion Houghton Dut- ton, born November 7, 1880; ii. Mary Con- verse Dutton, born July 23, 1884; iii. Alice Dutton, born July 1, 1893.
(VII) Edward Howard Houghton, son of Samuel Storms Houghton (6), was born at
MIDDLESEX COUNTY.
689
Melrose, Massachusetts, June 17, 1851. He was educated in the public schools of Melrose and in Phillips Academy at Andover. After leaving school he was engaged in the fancy goods business on Milk street, Boston, and later was for seven years with the mercantile firm of Willoughby, Hill & Company of Chi- cago. Mr. Houghton is now traveling abroad and is not in active business.
BROWN John Brown, or (Browne) the immigrant ancestor, was born in England, and was associated with the Pilgrims at Plymouth. While he was traveling in his youth he became acquainted with Rev. John Robinson, pastor of the Pil- grims, and through him met many of his peo- ple in the same way that Governor Winslow and Miles Standish came to join the Pilgrims. He did not come in the "Mayflower," how- ever. It was not until March, 1629, that he reached New England and then he landed at Salem. Two years earlier, however, March 19, 1627, the council for New England ap- proved a patent for trade, soil and planting on which a Royal Charter was obtained March 4, 1628, to certain patentees and their associates among whom were John Browne, John Sal- tonstall and others who became well known in the colonies. He was elected to Governor John Endicott's council, April 3, 1629, with Francis Higginson, Samuel Skelton, Francis Bright, Samuel Browne, Thomas Graves and Samuel Sharp. He went from Salem to Plym- outh and thence to Taunton with his son James. In 1643 John Brown (I) and his sons John and James Brown, were residents of Taunton, but next year they settled at Reho- both, Massachusetts. There John Brown (1) and John Brown, Jr. stayed and were among the first settlers, but James Brown, being a Baptist, was forced to leave town in 1663, and with others of his sect founded the town of Swansea, Massachusetts. The designation "Mr." always given to him in the records shows that he was counted among the gen- try. His sons and grandsons were leaders in civic, judicial and military affairs. John Brown was appointed one of the townsmen (an office) in Rehoboth, March 16, 1645, and again 1650-51, and he served the town on im- portant commissions. He was on the pru- dential committee; was for seventeen years from 1636 to 1653 one of the governor's as- sistants. In 1638 the assistants were: Wil- liam Bradford, Edward Winslow, Captain Miles Standish, John Alden, John, Jenny and
John Brown. He was one of the commis- sioners of the United Colonies of New Eng- land (which fore-shadowed the later confeder- ation) from 1644 to 1655. In the governor's court, June 4, 1652, he won a not- able suit for damages for defamation against Samuel Newman, the judgment being one hundred pounds and costs. Mr. Browne waived the judgment, how- ever, and let Newman off on payment of the costs. Browne was a friend of Massasoit, and the proof of their friendship was shown when the life of his son James was spared by King Philip, son of Massasoit, when he came on a mission from the governor to the In- dians. Colonel Church, in his narrative, says: "that the Indians would have killed Mr. Browne, who with Mr. Samuel Gorton and two other men bore the letter, but Philip pre- vented them, saying that his father had
charged him to
show kindness
to Mr.
Browne." It is said in his honor that he was the first magistrate to raise his voice against the coercive support of the ministry, taking the stand that all church support should be voluntary and backed his precepts by liberal example. He was a man of ability, intellect, piety and patriotism, and was buried with civ- ic and military honors in 1662. His wife Dorothy died in 1674. His eldest son died the same year, 1662. His other son, James, was afterward in the magistracy. His grand- son, John Browne, became useful and emin- ent. In 1685 John Browne was one of the first associate justices of the court of common pleas in the county of Bristol. In 1699, dur- ing the administration of Lord Bellamont, he was again appointed a magistrate.

sachusetts. He was said to be a Baptist, as stated above, and a preacher in that denomina- tion. He was chosen assistant in 1665.
