Mother*Locky Osburn1 b. 19 Aug 1835, d. 1916
Birth*11 December 1867Espa M. Langford was born on 11 December 1867 in Kentucky.3,1,4 
Name-SpellingsA variation of the spelling of the LANGFORD surname found in our research was Lankford.5 
(Daughter) Census US 187025 August 1870Espa was enumerated as Mariet E. on the 1870 census taken on 25 August 1870 in the household of her parents in District 5, Lawrenceburg Post Office, Anderson County, Kentucky. She was 3 years old6 
Burial* and was buried in Valley Cemetery, Taylorsville, Spencer County, Kentucky.4 
Death*after 1 June 1880She died after 1 June 1880, probably in Anderson County, Kentucky. Her Find a Grave memorial page reported her date of death as 29 January 1880, a year we know is not correct because she was alive when she was enumerated on the 1880 census, which had an effective date of 1 June. The photo of her gravestone, attached to her memorial, is difficult to read and, to us, could be 1883 or 1886. In either case, she was a teenager when she died.1,7,5 
(Daughter) Census US 18802 June 1880Espa was enumerated on the 1880 census taken on 2 June 1880 in the household of her parents in Goodnight, Anderson County, Kentucky. She was 12 years old.1,8
