  !SOURCE: WILL OF FATHER, WILLIAM MONTGOMERY, PROBATED 10 FEB 1811, GUILFORD COUNTY, NORTH CAROLINA - FILE NR. 0251 James Montgomery married Jane White. He was listed in the Carroll County Census of 1850 which stated his age at 60 years. The same record show his occupation as a shoemaker (Grayson Household #296; Wythe Household #574). The 1860 Census states where James resided with his son, Caswell P. Montgomery, in Wythe County, Virginia. Family tradition states James died while living with his son, Caswell P. (Kidd) Montgomery, in what is now Floyd County, Virginia. Caswell P. did start what is presently known as the Montgomery Cemetery, Indian Valley Section, Floyd County, Virginia. The family cemetery was started at the death of his young daughter Tishie. Other known family members buried in this cemetery include Caswell P.and his wife, Tener Bowman; their son, McNeely Montgomery and his wife, Sarah Victoria Quesenberry; McNeely's sons Roy Bascum Montgomery and Bruce Montgomery; McNeely's brother Tete Montgomery (William Fountain); McNeely's sister and husband, Liona (Sis) and Asa Gallimore. There are also other plain sand stone markers within the Montgomery side of the cemetery that are unmarked. When first conducting this family tree it was believed that James and his wife were both buried in the Fruithill Cemetery located outside Dugspur, Floyd County, Virginia. However since completing the genealogy, finding numerous unmarked stones at the family cemetery, and knowing that James lived with his son, it is very possible that James and his wife might be buried here. Date of death added from submission of C. Wade Roberts, CMS 1776, on 6 Oct, 1997.
