Welcome: After years of hitting road block after road block from this point back, I decided the best thing for me to do was to map every Houk I could find starting in Missouri. I think we are all in agreement that the main bulk of the Houk family starts with George Houk and his children. In 1850 James is in District no 23 in Cooper Co. living with Father George mother Catherine & brother John 14. After the death of his first wife James Houk married Mary Elizabeth Burton. They had 4 children, however the oldest died as an infant.
