Biography

Bessie F Langdon was born in 1887 to Louchester Stewart and ? Stewart in North Carolina. She married Ellis Langdon; they had 12 children. She died in 1981 at age 97 and is buried in Harnett County, North Carolina.

RESEARCH NOTE: Her death record indicates her father is William Hinton Stewart (born about 1844) and her mother is Louchester Stewart. Looking for record that connects a William Hinton Stewart as spouse of Louchester. William Hinton Stewart is also the father of Louchester Stewart.
