The Houstons lived at 1808 New Hampshire Avenue in Washington, D.C. My mother often said she remembered the Easter Egg Hunts held on the White House lawn. After Wilson's Presidency was over, the family moved to 165 East 74th Street in New York City, where Mr. Houston served on the board of several companies, including U.S. Steel, AT&T, and several others. My mother, Helen Beall Houston, attended The Brearley School there and enrolled in Bryn Mawr about 1929 but did not graduate. She moved to California in 1952.

And this article mentions a Supreme Court Justice in NY: query.nytimes.com/mem/archive-free/pdf?res=9D04E6DA1138EE...
