HOUPT, whose birth occurred March 1, 1844, remained with his parents until the age of seventeen. During his youth his privileges of securing an education were very limited, though by diligence he obtained sufficient for the business of life. At the age of seventeen, he enlisted in Company D, Thirty-first Indiana Volunteer Infantry, and served three years, receiving his discharge at Chattanooga September 15, 1864. He then returned home and began work on a farm. At this time he owned a team of horses and $100 in money. He now has ninety-two acres of land in Section 33, all of which is well improved. At present Mr. Houpt is engaged as a clerk in the mercantile establishment of John Davis & Son, at Graysville. He and wife are members of the Methodist Episcopal Church. He is a prominent Democrat; has served four years as Justice of the Peace, and is the nominee (spring of 1884) of his party for the office of Township Trustee, this being equivalent to an election. His parents were Jacob and Sarah H. (James) Houpt, natives of North Carolina. His brothers and sisters are Martha E., Sarah E., Thomas J., Susan R., William A., Mary F., John W. (our subject here), Julia A. and Jacob F. His wife was Miss Cynthia A., daughter of Woodson and Nancy (Burton) Burks, his marriage occurring October 29, 1867.
