  • Notes 
    • "The Montgomery Family of Franklin County" published in 1978 by Erick D. Montgomery of Nashville, Tennessee is carefully researched with 195 references appears to authoritatively resolve conflicts between Goodspeed's History and "John and Esther Houston-1738" by Anderson et.al.
      Erick D. Montgomery has birth in 1770 while Anderson has 1779.
      Hugh Montgomery is mentioned in Blount County records from the time Blount was created from Knox County in 1795.

      Erick D. Montgomery has Hugh's birthday in 1770 making him the oldest son of James and Margaret Weir Montgomery.
      Anderson et.al. give Hugh's birthday as 1779 and John's as 1778, stating John is the oldest son.

      Buried in Space #146 Montgomery Cemetery, Cowan, Franklin County, TN.
