Langston family.
Biographical notes:
Members of the Langston family lived in Johnston County and Wayne County, N.C. Isaac Langston, Sr., seems to have died in 1850. There is record of a Francis Langston, who may have owned land in Johnston County. There is some evidence that Uriah Langston was a lawyer. He seems to have lived in Johnston County, N.C., where he owned land, but later tax receipts show him residing in Grantham Township, Wayne County, N.C. Various other members of the Langston family appear in documents relating to sales of land among family members. These include William Langston, Furney Langston, Issac Langston, Westbrook Langston, and Elias Langston. Ira Langston lived in Bentonville, N.C., in the early decades of the 20th century. He seems to have been a lawyer, school commissioner, and elections official with connections to the Democratic Party. Letters from this period indicate that he was a Freemason. There is also evidence of a J. T. Langston, who practiced law in Smithfield, N.C.
