BIOGRAPHY: John Monroe LaBoon was known as "Georgia John" because he married and moved to Flowery Branch, Georgia where he reared his family. Here he built a sawmill, and a cotton gin on his farm and operated a public wheat threshing outfit.

BIOGRAPHY: All of John Monroe's children were born in or near Flower Branch, GA. When his wife Sarah died, he moved back to Easley Station and remarried. Second wife was Adelaide Phillips, sister of Sarah.

John Monroe had a blacksmithy, saw mill, threshing machines,cotton gin, and he farmed. He made all of his children's shoes and made wagons. He hauled corn and produce to Atlanta, Ga on an ox wagon. By all accounts, he was a hard worker and good provider.
