Notes:
* This probably a second marriage for James since he was over 40 when they married.
* From Hara Safford Pue: "Most of the info for the first two generations comes from Jim N. Langley III, PO Box 135, Pasadena, MD 21123, e-mail LANGLEY1@aol.com.
This info is copied from letter from Jim N. Langley III. "Mt. Pisgah Primitive Baptist Church Cemetery, Hwy 431 Stroud, AL. Stroud, AL is a very tiny town that still has Langley kin there today. It is just over the line from GA in the central eastern border (right over from Troup Co.) not far from Opelika and Auburn, AL.
* "James Riley Langley was born in GA, not far from the SC border. Right over the border in SC is a town named Langley, and was the site of a cotton mill and a gin mill.
* "Rev. War Patriot. Pension #S31813 - Came to Elbert Co. GA from SC. While in Troup Co., James Sr. lost land in a court case and his property was sold by the sheriff in 1827. Lot 31-6th district. James Gray of Pike Co. bought the land at auction. In Sept. 1839, our Jas. Sr. bought back the same land for $470.68. In Oct. 1839, he sold the land to Horatio S. Whitfield for $1,721.25. As a boy, the family moved to Orange Co. NC (which later was split into Caswell Co.) 1780, lived in Orange Co. lived in High Hills of Santee, SC. Richmond Co., GA 1805 Land Lottery awarded land in new Baldwin Co. 1806 Baldwin Co. married Elizabeth Bandy (this was a remarriage #??.) Putnam Co. GA census lived in Troup Co. 1833 (applied for pension here) thru 1839. 1840 and 1850 census of Chambers Co. Alabama A possible brother John Langley, 1756-1850, died in Troup Co. GA. James most likely had another set of children, but who knows. When he remarried in 1806 he was 40+yrs. old. James bought land in AL Jan. 17, 1837, patent #6163-76 35/100 acres. Jr. or Sr.? Was a Revolutionary War Veteran."
* LANGLEY, JAMES, aged 80, resided in Chambers County, June 1, 1840. Census of Pensioners, 1841, p. 149.
* In 1840 James Langley stated he was 80 years of age In his pension record he stated he was under Col. William Davidson He died in 1853 Chambers County.
* Private James Langley, NC Militia, Revolutionary War. 1762-1868 (105/6 years old!?) Buried Mount Pisgah Primitive Baptist Church Cemetery, near Stroud, Chambers County, Alabama.
* No one knows what became of Elizabeth. Depending on which records you reference, she either died in Georgia, or she died just after they moved to Alabama.
* From Hara Pue: "I received a family group sheet with James Riley Langley's father as James Langley b. Mar.23,1762 at Elizabeth City, Hampton Co., Va. and his death 1868 at Chambers Co. AL. It seems unlikely he lived to 106. Later found references that he DID live to 106. 1850 Census MS Lafayette Co. #265."
* Bathia LANGLEY - In Memory of Our Beloved Aunt Mrs Bethia Myhand died Aug 23 1889 aged 73 years.
