  • Notes 
    • John's middle name is seen interchangeably as Langdon and Langston.

      He was born in Liverpool, England when his mother accompanied his father on one of his sailing ships.

      John served as a private in the Florida Seminole War in 1836. He was a Lieutenant during the Mexican War in 1848 but was not called to active duty.

      Ref 1 says that John Langdon Grayson had two sons named Nathaniel, each by a different wife, Sarah Elizabeth. There is no evidence that John was married a second time and it has been concluded that "Sarah Elizabeth" is the same person as Jane Amelia Elizabeth Hale, John's first wife. Also, there was only one son named Nathaniel.
