    Notes:

    "William Montgomery joined by Relation to the Vienna Baptist Church in February 1882. He married First Hannah Catherine Wardell. William G. Montgomery married Sadie after their mates died. (Sarah C. Bridgewater Donahue, buried with her first husband, Edward R. Donahue, in the Scott CO, IN Cemetery.) Sadie was a hard worker and wanted something all the time, far more than Grandpa could make. He was a carpenter. Sadie took in washings. She did washings for Jess Everitt, Henry Everitt and others.
    She kept doing this for years after marrying grandpa. He didn't like it but went along with it and didn't say much. One day his son Tom met Amanda pulling a wagon with Everitt's washing on it and threw a fit. He told grandpa to never let it happen again. No sister of his was pulling a washing like a poor kid. So grandpa went home, took the pound of coffee that he had gone to the store after, set it on the table, packed his clothes and walked out. He never went back to her. He lived 11 years after that and died in Vienna. Paper said he was buried in Craven Cemetery, but Aunt Grace, Melvin Montgomery's wife, said he was burried at Estil. Uncle Mel was a pallbearer."

    Notes:

    Lorenzo Dow Montgomery came to Indiana from Lexington, Fayette County, KY. He was married to Mary Guynn. "Pap" as he was lovingly called by the family was a blacksmith by trade and was also inclined toward carpentering as was his grandson, Wilbur A. Montgomery. A hand-made press which he turned out is now the property of Fred L. Pierpont, also a grandson. L.Dow Montgomery's wife Mary J. (Ann or Alice) was born in Kentucky in 1826.

    The 1880 census shows Mary, 47. Mary was a tiny woman, not so very pretty, but always in a jolly mood, and always with something witty to say to the children to make them laugh. L.D. died of a heart attack in June 1896 and although he did not accumulate much wealth or worldly goods, he was honored and respected by his many friends and neighbors for his honesty, kindness and industriousness. He was affectionately known as "Uncle Dow" by all who knew him. In personal appearance, he was a small, wirey man.
