  1. Join me at www.BillieJoMonger.com as the year 1934 draws to a close. This is the year that brought forth much unforeseen change in the world as Adolph Hitler became President of Germany. John Wayne was making westerns and cars were the up and coming means of transportation. Let’s once again visit the eastern part of Rockingham County, Virginia through the Journal of Miss Lottie M. Davis. As in all small communities, people were still struggling to make the best of the “Great Depression.”
