Dear
Al, There have been two books written on the Hough Family which I
have: Hough Genealogy by Elmer Hough (1936) ( I purchased this from The
Higginson Book Company, Salem, MA 01970, ph: 978-745-7170 for less than
$20.00) The other one is: The Boyd Family by Scott Lee Boyd which
you can purchase from the same company for around $50.00. They are both
excellent, well worth the money. I also have one on the Waltz family, but
do not know where you can get that one.
I want to tell you that the Houghs are of German decent. The first 8
pages of the Hough Genealogy by Elmer Hough is incorrect and that Jacob Hough
is not a descendant of Richard Hough of
I have found some errors but that is to be expected by any of us who have been
doing genealogy for any time period. No matter how hard we try, there is
always something. So, keep my note if you plan to buy the above books.
Now to answer you question on David's parents and first wife.
His parents: Joseph Hough b. March 29, 1780 in Westmoreland Co., PA d.
December 7, 1846 in South Huntingdon Twp., Westmoreland Co., PA. He
married
There children:
1. Daniel Hough
2. Sarah H. (Sallie) Hough
3. Capt. John Hough
4. Maria (Mariah) Hough
5. Solomon Hough
6. Joseph Hough
7. Jacob Hough
8. Charlotte Hough
9. David Hough (your grandfather)
10. Paul Hough
then Joseph Hough married Nancy Finley bet. 1842-1848 b. Oct 31, 1799 in
South Huntingdon Twp., Westmoreland Co., PA d. December 9, 1871 Westmoreland
Co., PA. When Nancy Finley married Joseph Hough she was a
widow. Her first husband was William Bell. Nancy Finley and William
Bell are the parents of David Hough's (your grandfather) first wife, Nancy
Bell. (Are you confused yet?)
David Hough married Nancy Bell b.
David and
1.Theodore Benton Hough b.
(He moved to bef. 1870, Corwin Twp., Logan Co.,
2. Joseph B. Hough b.
3. Josephine B. Hough b. abt 1847 (See note below)
4. William B. Hough b.
If you look at the 1860 census PA, Westmoreland Co., PA, p. 1231
Hough, Nancy 58 (this is your grandfather's (David) mother-in-law and his
first wife Nancy's mother.
Hough, Theodore B. 16
Josephine B.
13
William B. 10
Apparently she raised her daughter's and son in laws children after
On Josephine Hough, I
have seen her listed several places as being the child of Joseph Hough
and Nancy Finley Bell Hough. However, she would have been too old to have
a child b. in 1847. I really believe she is the Josephine (3rd child of
David Hough and Nancy Bell)
Josephine F. (Josie) Hough b.Nov 23, 1847 West Newton, Westmoreland Co., PA
d. Sept 8, 1871 md. J. Logan Brown on August
23, 1869.
Children of J. Logan Brown and Josephine Hough
1. Nancy R. Brown, b. Nov 17, 1869 Westmoreland Co., PA. d. Dec
25, 1870
Westmoreland Co., PA
2. Anne E. Mae Brown b. July 3, 1871 Westmoreland Co., md Franklin L.
(Frank) Gress abt. 1892. He was born February 1859 PA.
My notes: She has no children. In 1900, 1910, 1920 and 1930 living
in Southwest Greensburg, Westmoreland Co., PA.
I found your grandparents David Hough and Amanda Guffy and children in 1860
census, living in Elizabeth Twp.,
If you can give me any additional info on your family. I would appreciate
it. Ancestry makes it difficult since they no longer let you put in
living people.
If I can help you in any way, let me know. Hope I did not make any typo
errors.

I have been concerned that none of David Hough's children with Nancy Bell are
listed in the 1860 census record. If
I think I found Nancy Bell Hough and the children in 1860, living with the

Note: The original census record clearly shows that the "Joseph" above is the
Josephine you are looking for.
Did you have any other information to tie the
two David Hough's together?
