Langton Lineage
My great aunt Phyll and her daughter Lynda started research into our family tree many years ago, somehow making the Newbury link and managing to trace back to 1679 in St. Nicolas parish register when William Langton married Elizabeth Gibbs.
My Father, David researched the Langton ancestors for many years, making lots of contacts, many through seemingly random polite conversation with strangers. He posseses a wide range of knowledge about Langtons from several locations, and building many theories on the origin of the Langton name. I would add that he is also a very knowledgable english historian.
The majority of my work has been conducted over the internet, accessing records, contacting others researching the langton family and finding books on the subject. In order to take things forward I created this site so that we all have a common place of reference and create a space for details to be recorded, and also to reach out to others interested in the Langtons history.
Several other people have helped by providing new data, confirming existing data, providing background information, offering opinions, and leads. I doubt I have remembered everybody as i was not very organised early on, and have a poor memory. If i missed you, accept my appologies and get in touch so that I can add you to the list.
