Description
John Langdon was a representative from New Hampshire and a signatory on the U.S Constitution. He was a successful international trader, who contributed to the Revolution as part of the committee that oversaw the establishment of the Continental Navy. Langdon believed that a well-regulated militia should be subordinate to civilian authority in the new government. In 1789 he was elected as a U.S. senator from New Hampshire.
This John Langdon mug is part of our US Constitution series profiling the 39 signatories of the US Constitution. The U.S. Constitution was signed on September 17, 1787, by 39 delegates to the Constitutional Convention in Philadelphia, presided over by George Washington. Six of these men also signed the Declaration of Independence: George Clymer, Benjamin Franklin, Robert Morris, George Read, Roger Sherman, and James Wilson.
The biographical History Mugs were created to teach and inspire individuals to learn about our diverse and interesting history. The biographies were researched and written by history enthusiast, Robert Compton. He colorized most of the historic photos and images used on the mugs, which were originally black and white or sepia-tone. The images and biographies are imprinted on mugs at his studio in rural Vermont.
