| Summary | "Horton Genealogy" by Geo. F. Horton is a genealogical account written in the late 19th century. This work focuses on the descendants of Barnabas Horton, one of the early settlers of Southold, Long Island, who arrived in America in the early 17th century. The book meticulously documents the lineage and family history of the Horton family, providing insights into their origins, key figures, and historical context. The opening of the book introduces Barnabas Horton, detailing his journey from Mousely, Leicestershire, England, to New Haven, Connecticut, and ultimately to Southold, where he played a significant role in the establishment of the community. Horton is characterized as a deeply pious man and a prominent figure in the local government. The section elaborates on his contributions, including building what is said to be the first framed dwelling on Long Island. As the narrative unfolds, it touches upon both the personal and communal history of the Horton family, setting a foundation for the genealogical records that will follow in subsequent chapters.
