Hello all, Someone was just asking me who the parents of James Henry Montgomery, born in 1812, were. James Henry Montgomery was the father of Benj. Franklin Montgomery. Anyway, the father of J.H. Montgomery was John Montgomery, Sr., but his mom, John's first wife, is unknown. Does anyone know who she was? Below is the excerpt from my file with this generation: ------------------- IV. JOHN MONTGOMERY, SR., B. Abt. 1785 in Charles County, MD.--D. Bet. 3/20/1848 & 4/4/1848 in Charles County, MD. Buried in St. Mary's Catholic Church Cemetery, Byantown, Charles Co., Md. Near the tombstone of Benj. Franklin Montgomery (below) is the tombstone of John Montgomery. I believe it is our John's. On it it says: "John Montgomery, Pvt., 1 Regt., MD Militia, War of 1812; 1780-1848." For John Montgomery 's "Will", see down below: -M- 1ST WIFE UNKNOWN: B: Abt. 1780 in MD m: Abt. 1800 in MD, D: Bef. 1820 in MD.. ISSUE: 1.
