Land patentee for 40 acres in Sullivan County, Missouri on 1 Jul 1848

Lancaster County, Nebraska; Chicago; Chapman Brothers, 1888, p. 465: Doyle Montgomery has been engaged in agricultural pursuits on his present farm on section 22, South Pass, since 1874. His industry and perseverance have been well rewarded, as his fine farm of eighty acres, for fertility and compares with the best in the township. Doyle Montgomery, of whom we write, was the oldest son of his parents, and he was born in Doylestown, Wayne County, Ohio, August 12, 1828. His education was conducted in the schools of his native town, and he was sixteen years of age when he left the place of his birth to accompany his parents to their new home in Missouri. He experienced with them the hard labors and privations of a pioneer life far from the centers of civilization, and many a day did he follow the breaking-plow drawn by oxen, and otherwise assist his father in breaking his land for cultivation. Markets were not very near, and the nearest gristmill was twenty four miles away. Our subject remained an inmate of the parental home until he was twenty one years of age, then, ambitious to do something for himself and to see more of the world, he went to work as a carpenter in Keokuk, Iowa, continuing in that city for two years. He then returned to his old home in Sullivan County, Missouri, where he had resolved to manufacture lumber. He erected a sawmill at a cost of $1,500, the result of his hard earnings, but he was exceedingly unfortunate in this venture, as a freshet arose and swept the mill away; with it all his property was gone, and he had labored for naught. He did not lose his courage, however, and the strength to work with it, but he manfully set about to retrieve his lost fortunes, encouraged and assisted by the young wife whom he married in 1853, while his mill was being built. Mr. and Mrs. Montgomery commenced their married life in Sullivan County, Missouri, and after the loss of his sawmill, he fell back on his old trade of a carpenter and the best means of earning a living. He was thus engaged until the breaking out of the Rebellion (Civil War), when, sympathizing with the North, it was not safe for him or his family in a hostile state, so he preferred to take up his abode in a more northern latitude, and came with his wife and children to Nebraska City. He resumed the carpenter's trade there and was quite profitably engaged in it for several years. In 1864, however, he decided to turn his attention to farming, and came to Lancaster County with his family and purchased his present farm. He erected a fair set of buildings, dwelling, barns, etc., has a fine grove, and plenty of fruit, all of which he set out with his own hands. The farm is well watered, and exceedingly productive. In our subject this community finds a useful citizen, his neighbors a kind friend, and his family a good husband and father. In their religious views both Mr. and Mrs. Montgomery favor the Southern branch of the Methodist Episcopal Church. Politically, Mr. Montgomery is a true Democrat.

Doyle is buried in a very small, unnamed and unmarked cemetery 1 mile north of Firth, Nebraska on 68th street.

Doyle married Mariah Doyle on 7 Feb 1852 in Milan, Sullivan, Missouri, USA. Mariah was born on 11 May 1832 in Doylestown, Wayne, Ohio, USA; died in 1918 in Firth, Lancaster, Nebraska, USA. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
