  • Notes 
    • **********
      The following is from a family history manuscript written by John Judson Monroe

      James was a commissary sergeant during the Civil War. He "hated like hell" to take food from southern women to feed northern men. During the performance of his disagreeable duty, he was shot in the foot. He died from the wound twenty years later.

      Meanwhile he married an Irish girl. Among their children was John Judson, for whom I am named.
