General Notes: Husband - Andrew J. Montgomery


He obtained his education in his native county and afterward followed the carpenter trade for seven years and then went into the woods and was engaged in timber cutting and contracting until 1885. At that time he became a farmer and continued agricultural pursuits until 1903, when he retired. During the Civil war he served as a soldier from April, 1865, until September in the same year, being a member of Co. B, 74th Pa. Vol. Inf., his commanding officers being Col. Hobart, of Pittsburgh, and Captain P. C. Spencer, the latter of whom was his uncle. His regiment was detailed as guards for the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad.
He and his wife were members of the Methodist Episcopal church. In politics he was identified with the Republican party but never wanted to hold office and when his appreciative fellow citizens elected him a justice of the peace in Bell township, he declined to serve. He was a member of the fraternal order of Knights of the Golden Eagles at McGee's Mills, Clearfield county.
