Hi Janet I don't think I'm related. There were at least 2 Langford families, perhaps 3 in the Ottawa area. Where exactly in Carleton County? What sub-district? I know there were some in Torbolton and there was also a John Langford I come across a lot in Ottawa who was with the fire dept and was also a city counsellor. He's in the earlier Ottawa City Directories (1860's). He could have been a father or uncle or something. I do find that even in the late 1800's there are some naming clues that help me. There was also a family in the Gatineau (Rupert area I think). I've come across a few in my searches. I can tell mine because they are English and most others are Irish. Also mine are Protestant while some of the Irish families are Catholic. It's a long shot but you could try the 1911 Census in the same district. I've found 2 of my family members at the same address in 1911 that they were at in 1901. Of course I already knew I'd find them there cause it was my great grandfather and his brother and my mom had told me where they lived. If they were in the country then look for the range and lot number. Shirley Janet MacDonald <jkmacd@telusplanet.net> wrote: Shirley: I noticed your reply about Richard Henry Langford. I was wondering if you were related to the following family: Charlotte 1853-1940 (nee Downey) and John Langford 1840-1921. Their children: William, Thomas, Minnie, and Mary. According to the 1901 census there was no Richard Henry as a child. My Langfords were from the Carleton township of Ontario. Charlotte and John are buried in St Thomas Anglican Cemetery. Charlotte is my great grandmother's sister. I look forward to hearing from you.

I have a Samuel Silas Langford but he shows up on the Census as Silas S. Langford. His 2nd wife was Emma Rogan but before that he was married to Mary Crain. I have Richard's birthdate as Feb 3, 1890. I didn't know where he was born aside from Ontario. He would have been my great grandfather's cousin. Silas was a blacksmith and he's on the 1901 Census on Concession Street in Ottawa (what is now Bronson Street I think). I don't have any information for you about his service but I can give you his parents and grandparents (on both sides) info. I don't have a death date for Mary Crain. A few of the Langford's married into the Crain family of Merrickville. > > Shirley MacNutt - BC Canada > > Hugh Whitney wrote: > I would like to repeat a request made a number of months ago: > > I am looking for information on a Richard Henry Langford, born on February 3rd, 1890 in Carleton Place, son of Silas and Mary Langford, brother James R. and sisters Mabel G., and Mildred M. He was a soldier in the 7th Canadian Cavalry Field Ambulance (Canadian Cavalry Brigade) in WWI. He fought in France and received the Military Medal for evacuation of wounded during the Battle of Rifle Wood on April 1, 1918.

Hi again Janet I just looked at the 1901 Census and your Langford's are in Torbolton, and are Irish. That area is now called Buckham's Bay if you know the area. I am also related to the Buckham's through my Langford line (very convoluted). My 2nd great grandmother, Isabella Buckham Langford, came to Canada abt 1820 with her family and her brother, John Buckham, was the first civilian settler in Torbolton. They named Buckham's Bay after him. I think there was someone else on the list related to the Langford's in Torbolton. There was a William and his sister Mary Ann who never married and I ended up with William's Will. I sent it to whoever it was on the list. You could check the archives to see who it was because I sent the correspondence through the list. Shirley __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!

Shirley: Thank you very much for the information on the Langfords. I will check the archives. Sorry I was so long in replying I was away for the weekend without access to the internet. I will check the 1911 census.
