Notes |
- **********
The following is from a family history manuscript written by John Judson Monroe
Louisa was the daughter of a red-headed Lutheran preacher and a Strasbourg girl whose people had fled from the southern part of France after the revocation of the Edict of Nantes, and whose uncles left their bones on the plains of Russia following napoleon's disastrous retreat from Moscow.
Louisa's father had left a good deal of money to several daughters. She used her portion to acquire a literary education thus becoming a "bluestocking". she migrated to the United States to Jacksonville, Illinois, where she became a teacher of French and music at Illinois Women's College."
