HE WAS LISTED IN THE 1860 CENSUS AS A FARMER, HIS WIFE'S AS THAT OF A HOUSEWIFE, AND THEIR DAUGHTER ELIZABETH THAT OF A SEAMSTRESS.
James Montgomery married Jane White. He was listed in the
Carroll County Census of 1850 which stated his age at 60 years.
The same record show his occupation as a shoemaker (Grayson
Household #296; Wythe Household #574). The 1860 Census states
where James resided with his son, Caswell P. Montgomery, in
Wythe County, Virginia.
Family tradition states James died while living with his
son, Caswell P. (Kidd) Montgomery, in what is now Floyd County,
Virginia. Caswell P. did start what is presently known as the
Montgomery Cemetery, Indian Valley Section, Floyd County,
Virginia.
The family cemetery was started at the death of his young
daughter
Tishie. Other known family members buried in this cemetery
include
Caswell P.and his wife, Tener Bowman; their son, McNeely
Montgomery and
his wife, Sarah Victoria Quesenberry; McNeely's sons Roy Bascum
Montgomery and Bruce Montgomery; McNeely's brother Tete
Montgomery
(William Fountain); McNeely's sister and husband, Liona (Sis)
and Asa Gallimore.
There are also other plain sand stone markers
within the Montgomery side of the cemetery that are unmarked.
When
first conducting this family tree it was believed that James and
his wife
were both buried in the Fruithill Cemetery located outside
Dugspur,
Floyd County, Virginia. However since completing the genealogy,
finding numerous unmarked stones at the family cemetery, and
knowing that
James lived with his son, it is very possible that James and his
wife
might be buried here.
