Johnny Lavon Muncy was the son of Robert "Bob" Henderson Muncy and LaVance Lavee "Bance" (Johnson) Muncy. Robert & Bance we the parents of two children (sons); Johnny was the youngest.
His Maternal grandparents were:
William H. Tudor and Nell (Moore) Tudor
His paternal grandparents were:
George Washington Muncy and Margie Ida (Tudor) Muncy
After Margie (Tudor) Muncy & son, Richard W. Muncy passed away in 1937, George Muncy & two sons came to California. Robert & his wife, were living in Rio Vista.George & his youngest son lived in Campbell for several years. Cousin Sibyl (Bowden) Alford used to do George's laundry (Cousin Sibyl will be 93 in June, still sharp as a tack.)
During the late 40's, early 50's George moved up to Rio Vista (by this time, both of his sons & their spouses were living in the Rio Vista area) four of his grandchildren were born there.
When Johnny passed away, his service was held here in Calif., with interment in Keota Gardens. He was only 13, he was a student at Antioch Junior High. The family was devastated. I believe this was when they all moved back to Oklahoma.
George went to Panama bought some property, built a new home, where he lived till he died.
