William Langstaff Gladden was born in England, either Liverpool or Reading. He was impressed into the Royal Navy at age 14 and when it docked in America he never reboarded. He had sons, James Thomas Gladden (my grandfather), Theodore Gladden, David Gladden and Baxter Gladden. James married Texas Anna Smith the folk singer and they had 10 children. My mother is the baby of those 10. Her name is Eleanor Wilma Jean Gladden Vandergrift. I have 28 cousins. James settled in the Roanoke Valley in Virginia.
