  • Notes 
    • !BURIAL: Both George & Mary J. Montgomery are buried in the Weddington Gap Cemetery, which is behind the Weddington Gap Baptist Church, located approximately 10 miles west of Fayetteville, AK on State Road 16.
      !CENSUS:
      1850 - Hilburn Township, Madison Co., Arkansas. Living adjacent to Thomas, who is believed to be his father due to proximity and age.
      1860 - Roll 45; Valley Township, Madison Co., Arkansas; age 26 1870 - Franklin Township, Newton Co., Missouri; age 39; occupation: lawyer 1880 - Valley Township, Madison Co., Arkansas
      3. See notes of visit with Zola Montgomery Spencer Brashears in July 1978.
      4. John C. Montgomery personally visited the graves of George E. & Mary J. Montgomery in Weddington Gap Cemetery on 4 July, 1978. They are buried on the same lot with the Cabes, relatives by marriage. See pictures taken at the cemetery.
      5. Per letters from Alma Baldwin dated 14 Nov., 1978 and her daughter, Hazel Bruni dated 13 Nov., 1978:
      George Edwin Montgomery owned a house in Cincinnati, Washington Co., Arkansas which Alma remembers personally. He also owned a store, but Alma couldn't remember exactly where it was. Alma's father, Marion Cook, husband of Bernethia J. Montgomery, bought the house from George. Alma and her sisters were born in this house; based on their birth dates, George must have sold the house between 1890-1897. The house was supplied with water from Rennick Creek, which was downhill from the house. Alma does not know where George and Mary moved after Mr. Cook bought the house; they may even have all lived together. The house must have been on a farm because Alma describes her mother's struggle to keep the farm going after Mr. Cook's death in 1903; her story indicates that the farm was adjacent to the house.
      !6. Per letter from Joseph Carl Montgomery dated 14 Feb., 1979: a. Confirmed that his father, Oscar, and uncle, Otis, lived with George Edwin when they were children.
      b. Says George Edwin was a farmer and a "wonderful man." Also says George Edwin and family were Baptists.
      c. Believes the family lost everything in the Civil War and scattered as a result.
      !7. In the records submitted to the Church of LDS by Wilma Hedge, the place of death is shown as Prairie Grove, Washington Co., Ark.
