    1. Montgomerys of Fermanagh
    2. Betty Paul
    3. My Montgomery ancestors settled in Fermanagh in mid 1600's. John Montgomoery was in Bellyconnel and his brother, Col. Alexander Montgomery m. Elizabeth Cole. Through marriage to her, he became owner of Balleyleek of the Cole lands. His oldest son was Thomas Montgomery the father of General Richard Montgomery. Our ancester was a younger son, Reverend Robert of Brandrum (wife unknown). His eldest son, Alexander Montgomery emigrated to America and settled in Stamford, CT. (Grenwich) where he married Sarah Locckwood, the daughter of Gershom Lockwood III and Mary Ferris. Does Balleyleek still exists. That is spelling our family has used for some century or more. Is there a place called Brandrum. Is it a Parish or part of an extate owned by Robert's uncle John? Any information on the Montgomerys of Fernabagh who came over from Ayreshire, Scotland will be appreciated. Betti Paull of Florida
