(1) We presume that various of the Langton families arose from different towns/villages called Langton. However, we have yet to be sure that we have found what connections there are between the different families. Other lines are on Langton01, LangtonXX (draft), and Temp35.
(2) Cross-references from elsewhere in the database indicate that, unless there was confusion between different Newtons and/or Waltons, the following family was of both Walton in Lincolnshire and Newton in Lancashire. We have seen (online) the suggestion that the Langtons of Newton in Lancashire were descended from the Langtons of Langton in Leicestershire. We have yet to check any of the Visitations to Lancashire.
