James Harvey Langford Sr. | Family Group Sheet |
James Harvey
Langford, Sr. was the first child of Fielding Langford and Sarah
Bethurum. He was born in Somerset, Pulaski, Kentucky on April 30, 1831,
and he died in Colonia Oaxaca, Sonora, Mexico on May 29, 1908. James
Harvey married Mary Caroline Turnbaugh
on September 14, 1856. That marriage ended in divorce when Mary
Caroline brought suit for divorce on February 5, 1980. The day before
that happened, James Harvey wrote a letter to an attorney (we're not
sure if the attorney was his or hers) to give his perspective about the
divorce. That letter, and more information about the divorce, is given
in Ida-Rose Langford Hall's Langford Book, pp. 127-128.
Ida-Rose,
in her Langford Book (starting on p. 125), gives quite a lot of
information about James Harvey and Mary Caroline. In addition, this page
gives stories about James Harvey and Mary Caroline that are not in the
Langford Book. This page also gives links to their family group record
and Mary Caroline's pedigree chart and her Turnbaugh and Davis
ancestors. If you have corrections or additions, please email me with
the details using the email address given in my Profile.
