Pat, When I checked my list of early settlers arriving before 1840, in Montgomery Co., written by Walter R. Sanders many years ago, it showed the following: Kelly, Beninaih, b. 12-10-1807, Pembroke, Merrimac Co., N.H. Noah J., b. Aug. 16, 1784, S.C., immigrated to N.C., then to TN, then Montgomery Co. Issac, b. 1819, TN James, b. 1809, TN John, b. 1820, KY Silas, b. 1812, TN Hicks, John N., b. 1812, KY Richard, b. 1805, NC Mr. Sanders said his sources were early census records; marriage, birth and death records; settlement of estate files; probate and journal records; land patents; family histories; Bible records; tax records; and jury lists. One suggestion is to go to your nearest LDS FAmily History Center where you can order and view microfilms of Montgomery Co. cemetery records. They are not complete, but there are books with records available this way. Good luck, Juli Claussen

Does anyone have any information on this John and Richard Hicks? Possibly they are my lost Hicks whose family came through Cumberland Co., KY circa 1810, father Richard Hicks died in War of 1815 in Feb. 1815 in New Orleans camp, and mother remarried and immigrated to Illinois about 1828-1830.
