Hugh d, 1832 was the Montgomery who was known as "Split-fig Montgomery". I'd like to know if he bought Benvarden from Cassandra McNaghten Hardy, daughter of the famous "half-hanged McNaghten" or if Cassandra had to sell and then Montgomery bought it from the intermediary. Do you know the date he bought Benvarden? the Hardys were in financial difficulties in 1791 Linde L
