Len Langton

Len Langton, his brother-in-law, was born in Ouachita County, Arkansas, in April, 1861, a son of Moses G. W. Langton, who was born in Georgia in 1821, his father, who also bore the name of Moses, being an Englishman. The latter was a veteran in the Revolutionary War, and came to this country with three brothers and aided the cause of the colonists. The male members of the family have at all times been traders and merchants up to the present, and this occupation now receives the attention of Len Langton, who is associated with Mr. Knighton in business.

He was married in 1887 to Miss Annie E. Knighton, by whom he has two children: Lonny and an infant. The former died in infancy.
