Our first Huston to come to America from Ireland was John Huston who had a son named William. John Huston and family came to America in 1735. William was only a lad when arriving here. He grew up and married Anges Nancy Hinman who had come from Scotland. William and Agnes Nancy had a son named Thomas. Thomas married Susannah Campbell. Thomas had a son, Almanzon. Almanzon had a son, Henry Henderson, H.H had a daughter named Anna Cora who married Elbert Malachiah Wood. Anna Cora and Elbert Malachiah were my grandparents. My Dad was Henry Houston Wood. If you know of this Houston/Huston ancestral line, please contact Marge at: margeisrael@aol.comThank you and blessings.
