General Notes: Husband - John T. Montgomery


He was born near Manorville, Armstrong County, Pennsylvania, and grew to manhood in Van Buren. At the age of twelve years he commenced boating on the Allegheny river, which he followed during the summer seasons until 1867, and was a pilot from the time he was eighteen years old, the last two years holding a commis­sion as a pilot between Pittsburgh and Oil City. In 1867 he gave up piloting, and in May of that year settled at Boydstown, Butler County, where he carried on merchandising for three years. He next went to Parker's Landing, and followed pumping oil. In 1872 he returned to Butler County, and teamed for some years at Greece City, during the oil excitement. In 1878 he purchased a homestead of fifty-five acres, partly cleared, but without buildings, on which he settled in 1880. He then erected all of the buildings, cleared the land and made many other improvements. He devoted his time and attention to his farm and dealing in horses. He was an ardent Republican, and filled the offices of supervisor, auditor and school director in Oakland township.


General Notes: Wife - Mary M. Neyman


She was born in Jefferson County, Pennsylvania, and was brought to Butler County at the age of two years and was raised on the family homestead. She received her education in the common schools and at Witherspoon Institute.
