From http://www.heritagepursuit.com/Hamilton/HamiltonBio971.htm:

JOHN P. LANGDON was born December 8, 1829, on the farm where he and his family 
now live in Spencer township, Hamilton Co., Ohio. He has always been an active busy 
farmer, and lives on the very site where his father began his career and built his early 
western borne about 1820. He enjoyed only such educational advantages as the 
common district schools afforded in the early days of subscription and free schools of 
Ohio, but he has found time to read and keep posited in the progress of events and all 
matters of public importance. Mr. Langdon has been twice married. His first wife was 
Mary Williams, daughter of one of the pioneer families of Ohio, but she died about five 
years thereafter, leaving a son, James W., who with his father cultivates corn on a 
large scale in the Little Miami Bottoms. The second marriage was with Keturah A. 
Nash, also a daughter of one of the oldest settlers of Hamilton county.

Although the business of an active farmer usually occupies almost exclusively a man's 
time and attention, yet Mr. Langdon has from his early manhood been called upon to 
act and interest himself in public matters, both religious and secular. He has been an 
officer of the township and village repeatedly, and when the village of Linwood was 
first incorporated he was chosen mayor, which office he now holds, having been re-
elected thereto for seven terms. His father was a prominent member and a local 
preacher of the Methodist Protestant Church, and very naturally he, as a result of his 
early training and surroundings, became also a member of that Church. Having a good 
voice and fair musical talents, he has always taken great interest in the music of the 
Churches and Sunday-schools. At present he is a teacher of the large Bible class of 
the Sunday-school in the Baptist Church, and is one of the prominent representative 
men of the village, in all public and moral advancement.
