Marriage, Children
During his stay at Fairhaven, Broughton became acquainted with one of Rogers' daughters, Cara Leland Duff (née Rogers), a young widow. By 1895, the sewer work was well on its way to completion, and Cara Rogers Duff and Urban Broughton had decided to be married. A quiet wedding was held at the residence of Henry H. Rogers and his wife, Abbie Gifford Rogers at 2026 East Fifty-Seventh Street in New York City. On Christmas Day, they sailed aboard an ocean liner on a honeymoon trip to Europe. Cara and Urban had two sons, Urban Huttleston Rogers Broughton, also known as Huttleston Broughton, born in August 1896 at Fairhaven, and Henry Rogers Broughton, born in January 1900.

Famous quotes containing the word children:
“It’s so easy during those first few months to think that the problems will never end. You feel as if your son will never sleep through the night, will always spit up food after eating, and will never learn to smile—even though you don’t know any adults or even older children who still act this way.”
—Lawrence Kutner (20th century)
