John Alfred Langford (12 September 1823 – 24 January 1903) was an English journalist and antiquary in Birmingham.〔 ==Early life== Born in Crawley's Court, Bradford Street, Birmingham, Warwickshire, Langford was the second surviving son of John Langford, who came to Birmingham from Wales in 1815, started business in 1828 as a chairmaker. He owed his early education to his mother, Harriet Eaton, a paralysed invalid. After attending a private school in Brixhall Street, Deritend (1829–33), Langford entered his father's chair-making business at ten, and was apprenticed when thirteen in 1836. He read widely for himself. At 19, while still an apprentice, he married, and at 21 was a journeyman earning a guinea a week.〔 While still young he studied at Birmingham's Mechanics' Institute. Later Langford drew on his early experiences as a pattern for self-help.
