No offense, but it cracks me up to see that the line goes back through your father's side, as well as your mother's!My line is very similar, in that my mother's grandparents were 1st cousins, once removed.
You still live in Ashe County, did you go to the Houck reunion in 2002?It was for the desc. of Albert Byard Houck, and I think they are still having it once a year.
My line is through Joseph A. Houck...his son is Albert Houck, whose daughter, Iva Juanita happens to be my grandma.She died before my birth, though...her sister Lottie Rae then married my grandpa Gilley.
No proof is given of what happened to Benj.-- it would be nice to one day have that!In the 1860 census, it is only his wife and children in Upper Division, Wilkes County.
