General Notes: Husband - David Dunbar Montgomery


On a farm in Venango County, Pennsylvania, he grew to manhood, and in connection with agricultural pursuits, he became familiar with the work in the oil fields. In February, 1863, he laid aside all personal interests, and enlisted in the 11th Pennsylvania Reserves, but was later assigned to Company I, 190th P. V. I., under Capt. W. Coleman. The regiment was assigned to the Fifth Army Corps, under Gen. Crawford, and with that command participated in many important battles, including the Wilderness, Cold Harbor and Petersburg. Being seriously wounded by a ball in the back of the head, he was sent to hospital, where he remained some nine months, and after his discharge never regained his former health and strength. After the war he spent eleven years at Oil City, and in 1882 removed to a farm of twenty acres in Richland township, Clarion County, where he had four good oil wells in successful operation.
