Houston was found in a basket when he was only a few months old in front of the Lutheran Church in Arnar, Avalon.
The Áslaugsson family took Houston in as their own and he grew very close to his adopted mothers Áslaug and Birta. A renowned scientist and environmentalist, Áslaug, would often have Houston assist her with her experiments and investigations. As a result of his mother's teachings, Houston flourished as an inventor in his own right.
As the Glendale Adventures progress, Houston discovers that he is in fact a legitimate heir to the Glendale throne.
