...A stroke of luck has given me marvelous success in locating a descendant of my Grandmother's [Ida Monzingo, daughter of George W.(???) Monzingo and Elizabeth H. Landers/Sanders (???)] sister (Savannah Monzingo). Jodi, who is married to a Monzingo descendant, has, on loan, the family bible of Savannah Monzingo. She has graciously copied the entries into the email which I am now forwarding. This answers some questions about my grandmother's Monzingos and fills in some of the blanks in my genealogy....
