Her main, Robert Montgomery, line moved west & settled in Lincoln County, Kansas. Our Robert had 7 brothers & sisters, I don't have any idea where they ended up. Arlene's go all the way back to, Robert Montgomery, born 1659 in Glenarm, Antrim, Ireland, he had a son, Hugh Montgomery, born abt. 1689 in Glenarm, Antrim, Ireland & died April 1767 in Londonderry, New Hampshire, Rockingham County. So Hugh was the member of our family who made the trip across the water to America, the United States. Enough of that, I see those names you mention keep showing up in most of the Montgomery lines I have looked at. Good luck with your search. I would like to add something to those who are new to computers & their source of Genealogy Help. You have Ancestry.Com, Family Tree, The Morman Archives Utah. They all have help for you, but You can't take any of it as being the correct family history help for you, They are only as good as the source that put them there. You can take the information & check it out for yourself. Some of it is correct as they are listed, but being listed there, doesn't automatically make it the correct info. ?Gayle M.
