    Robert Elmer Byrd, nephew of John Monroe, said that John Monroe Lammons:

    "Was well educated and read books all the time.
    Was superintendent of public education in Geneva County (Alabama) at the age of 27.
    Was a hotel manager in Wichita, Kansas.
    Lived in Elba, Alabama at one time.
    Left Alabama around 1920 or before.
    Went to Kansas City, Missouri.
    That Monroe's first wife died before he left Alabama."

    [On this last point, Robert Elmer wasn't aware of Cleola Brackin, Monroe's wife before he married Annie Mell Simmons. So Monroe's first two wives had died before he left Alabama. Cleola died 3 months after their
    marriage. She was only 16 years of age when she died.

He was also a very crafty person in the sense that he could make anything with his hands. He made baskets, big cotton baskets for farmers.

He was a very kind and loveable man, and dearly loved his grandchildren." -- John Allen Byrd
