After graduating from Thomasville High, Langford was drafted into the Army, at age 20, alongside his brother, William, who was killed in action. George Langford served under General George S. Patton from 1942 to 1945. George Langford's other siblings, Annie, Will, and Daniel, were in the Navy. After spending most of the war on the European Front, George Langford was honorably dischaged and returned home. He then attended the University of Virgina, where he received his bachelors and his law degree in 1950. Upon graduation, George Langford founded the Municipal Code Corporation in Tallahassee in 1951. After marrying his wife, Marian Corbin Lawton, in 1954, the two worked together to expand the company. Langford was named the Florida Entrepreneur of the Year in 1989 and inducted into the Institute of American Entrepreneurs for his work. Langford was incredibly active in the Tallahassee community, co-founding Springtime Tallahassee, helping start Leadership Tallahassee, and revitalized the Tall Timber research institute in Tallahassee. Among his community involved was his work in fundraising for  various local beneficiaries. He brought his expertise in fundraising to Florida State, serving as a founding member of the Seminole Boosters Board of Directors during the 1970s and in six terms as the FSU Foundation chair. Among his greater contributions to the school was his work in the 1970s as executive of Seminole Boosters, helping save the football program from debt and playing an influential role in hiring coach Bobby Bowden. In recognition of his work, Langford received many awards from the university, as well as the naming of the Langford Green in 2000, a grassy area outside of Doak Campbell Stadium, in his honor. Additionally, he created the George R. Langford Eminent Scholars Chair in Classics through his donation to the department. As of 2017, he remained an active member of the Florida State University Community, despite his age. His children are also very involved in Florida State and the Institute on World War II and the Human Experience. George Langford passed at age 95 on January 3, 2019.

Upon the death of his mother, he was raised by his grandmother in Rochelle, Illinois. He attended Beloit College (Beloit, Wisconsin) for his undergraduate education, graduating with a science degree in 1912. After taking classes at Harvard University, he obtained a bachelor of science degree in civil engineering from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 1915, and briefly worked on the M.I.T. teaching staff.\nMr. Simons moved to Jacksonville, Florida, in 1916, where he resided for the remainder of his life. His professional engineering career began when he was hired by the Florida State Board of Health to establish the Bureau of Sanitary Engineering in 1916. He served as Chief Engineer of the Bureau for nine years. During this time, he founded the first Anti-Mosquito Association of Florida, and was appointed to Jacksonville's first planning board in 1922. In 1925, he resigned his state position and joined the Consolidated Development and Engineering Corp. of Jacksonville, a private company active in land development during the region's construction boom of the 1920s. Named Chief Engineer of the Company, he was instrumental in the development of the Jacksonville residential subdivisions, Venetia and Lake Forest, and the Woodlawn subdivision in St. Petersburg, Florida.\nHis lifetime work for which he was to become known - as a planning, zoning and municipal consultant - commenced in 1928, when he was hired by the City of Jacksonville to develop a comprehensive city plan and zoning ordinance. The following year, the city of Miami Beach hired him to prepare its first zoning ordinance. Over the next forty years, he was retained by over seventy municipalities to prepare planning documents and reports. He also created economic and marketing studies for Jacksonville and Wilmington, North Carolina.\nHis professional affiliations were numerous: Past President and Fellow of the Florida Engineering Society; life member of the American Society of Civil Engineers, American Institute of Planners, and the American Society of Planning Officials; honorary member of the American Public Works Association; and a member of the Institute of Traffic Engineers, National Housing and Redevelopment Association, and the National Society of Professional Engineers. During World War II, he was appointed as a special consultant to the Federal Reserve Bank in Atlanta, and later served as Coordinator for the Florida State War Production Board. He retired from professional life in 1970.\nHis prodigious civic service, contributions, and memberships in associations and organizations in Jacksonville were varied and extensive over a sixty year span. He assumed a leadership role in many of them, including two years as President of the Community Chest-United Fund, twelve years as a Commissioner / Member of the Housing Authority, seven years as President of the Civic Music Association, Trustee of the Jacksonville Public Library, President of the Council of Social Agencies, Little Theatre of Jacksonville, and Torch Club. In particular, his association with the Civitan Club, on both a local and national level, was a life-long involvement. He frequently attended national Civitan Club conventions, and served as International President in 1930 and 1931.\nReligious affiliations were particularly meaningful to Mr. Simons, and he maintained a strong and vigorous membership with the Riverside Presbyterian Church in Jacksonville. He served as the Men's Bible Class teacher for 32 years, and Elder of the Church and Board of Trustees. From 1962-1977, he wrote a weekly Sunday School column in the Florida Times-Union newspaper.\nHe was married to Marion Guest Simons and had two children, a daughter, Christian, and a son, George Guest Simons. After an extended illness, Mr. Simons died on July 8, 1977, at the age of 86.","Note written by ","The collection contains correspondence, publications and printed materials, project and subject files, and photographs relating to Mr. Simons' personal and professional activities throughout his adult life, from his college years until his retirement in 1970.

The collection consists of letters, photographs (depicting herself and her fellow nurses in uniform, as well as African American G.I.s, and a few photographs from her time in West Africa), personal items, books, manuscripts, newspaper clippings, and interviews. The materials mainly document Bertram's time at Fort Bragg, NC, but there is some information concerning her life before enlistment, travels during enlistment, and life after enlistment. Most of her enlistment was spent in West Africa and at Fort Bragg, NC. This collection is important, as it covers the unique experiences of women and African Americans during World War II, and offers insight that differs from the majority white male G.I. perspective.
