Two aged people of Muncie, whose married life has been longer than that of any in Muncie, or probably in eastern Indiana, are the Rev. and Mrs. Isaac J. Langdon, residing at 1431 South Walnut Street. On next April 27 they will have been married sixty-five years. Mr. Langdon is 87 years old while his life's helpmeet is 83. Mr. and Mrs. Langdon, besides, are pioneers of the city of Muncie, having moved here in 1869, and have for forty-four years resided at the site of their present home, 1431 South Walnut street. They are the parents of seven children, four sons and two daughters living, one daughter being dead. The Rev. and Mrs. Langdon, the latter having been Miss Sarah A. Perkins before her marriage to Mr. Langdon, were united in marriage at Rustles Place, O., April 27, 1848, by the Rev. J. M. Kelly, many years deceased. Mr. Langdon, who is one of the city's best known pioneer ministers, was born October 26, 1826, and Mrs. Langdon was born March 31, 1930.
