Read a short biography of Elizabeth Wing Bangerter, taken from Missouri's Writers, 1970.
The Wings
The Wing family is a fascinating one with a very long history. There are several websites out there who have published the entire history of the Wing family, so I'm not going to even try to do it here! This is just my direct branch of the family, and it is one that not even the Wing Family Association seems to have much about. If you're looking for the entire history, please go to the Wing Family Association website.
