He lists, in his will of 10 Jan. 1699, proved 28 May 1710 (Middesex Wills), a wife Dyna and 3 daughters not of age. Only Alice is named, but Ann could be one of the others. This John was born 1654 Stony Brook, Middlesex Co., NJ. Dyna born about 1655. Also listed as possibly being parents of Thomas Houghton, b. 14 Sept. 1700.
