Notes - 6/01/01 - According to an e-mail received yesterday, the parents of Thomas Montgomery were Thomas and Hannah (Wolfensparger) Montgomery instead of the way it is shown in the CMSI database. This information was from Karen Watts, who claims to be the great-great grandaughter of this Thomas. She also says that Thomas and Elizabeth (Riddle) Montgomery had another son, Thomas Edgar Montgomery (1872-1933), who was her great-grandfather.
