Langton Lineage
This list will grow as more Langtons are discovered. You can help by telling us about any Langtons who should be added to the list.
In most cases, children are not listed, only the adult immigrants are listed, so if you want to know which children went with them, or if they had new issue in their new country of residance then find them in the database here, where their descendants are listed if known.

A NOTE ABOUT NEW YORK - Many of the records show Langtons arriving in New York, and I have noted when this is the case, however, not all settled in New York, many would have tranvelled to other places in America, possibly even Canada or other countries in onward travel. We cannot therefore assume that these people settled in New York, unless there is a more specific location given. It is also possible for the same person to appear on this page twice, once in New York and again elsewhere.
