Nathan married first, in October, 1836, Susan Orr Buckmaster and their children were John, Charles, Wilbur, Emma Josephine, and Susan Augusta.
Susan O. Buckmaster Bangs died in March, 1852. Her father-in-law, Rev. Dr. Nathan Bangs wrote on March 25, 1852: "Yesterday I attended the funeral of Susan O. Bangs, wife of my son, Nathan. What a loss has he sustained in the death of such a wife! She was one of the best of mothers in the training of her children as well as the best of wives. She professed religion and joined the Church about three years since and enjoyed peace with God, yet she often trembled in view of death. She lingered sometime with consumption..."
Nathan, Jr married second Hannah G. Stockton and they had at least two children, Nathan Stockton Bangs and Edmund Storer Janes Bangs. Edmund predeceased his parents.
Nathan worked as a bookseller and auctioneer. He died of erysipelas, which is an acute streptococcus bacterial infection of the upper dermis and superficial lymphatics.
Nathan Bangs, Jr was survived by his wife Hannah, sons John and Nathan Stockton Bangs, his daughter Emma Josephine Bangs Hoyne, and his father. Upon the death of his son and namesake, Rev. Dr. Bangs wrote: "My dear son Nathan died on the 17th of December, 1856. I was with him much of the time during his sickness, and of course witnessed his sufferings, and could but sympathize with his sorrowing wife. He was, indeed, a remarkable child in some respects, for I do not remember of his ever having given me a cross word, but until he set up business for himself my word was his law."
Rev. Dr. Foster wrote Nathan Bangs, Jr's obituary, including these words: "The large class of intelligent gentlemen connected with the book trade in its various departments throughout the country will long cherish his memory as a most worthy member of their fraternity, and as an ornament of the great business firm of which he was a prominent member, that of Bangs, Brother, & Co. His funeral was numerously attended by a thoughtful and sorrowing public."
Burial was in Greenwood Cemetery.
Nathan is in our Black Family Tree as a distant cousin via marriage.
