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. Thank you Hugh Whitney
Have you checked the 1911 census?

Hi Hugh, Other list members will correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm pretty sure this isn't the correct list for you. Carleton Place, despite the misleading name, isn't in Carleton County! I believe it is in Lanark County, for which rootsweb has a list you could join. Haven't checked them out myself, but there is a www.carletonplace.com & a www.carletonplace.ca Happy Hunting.

Hi Hugh I know I answered your post last time you asked but with the further info that you sent (siblings) I believe this is my Langford family. 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: 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.
