Descendants of George Montgomery
1 George Montgomery b: Abt. 1793-1797 in South Carolina d: 1877 in Carroll Co., TN Burial: Robeson Cemetery, Carroll Co., TN Census: 1850 Carroll Co., TN
Who is George’s father? Early researchers believed he was William Montgomery, while I tend to believe it was his brother, Jonathan Montgomery. Both brothers were Revolutionary War soldiers and both may have died in Carroll County, TN. From the information on William Montgomery’s Rev. War pension, William would not have been in SC when George (above) was born. There is evidence that William Montgomery had a son named George married to Nancy Montgomery, but this line is not that George Montgomery.
George Montgomery’s (married to Sarah Carson Jones) grandfather would be William Montgomery (2nd? wife Eady) d. Orange County, North Carolina leaving a will.

You could look at the Rev. Pension Applications of Jonathan and William
Montgomery, dated 1832 in Carroll County, Tennessee.
William says he went to SC., in 1818/1819, while Jonathan said that
he removed to SC. after the war was over.
Jonathan is found in SC by the 1790 census, and William is first found
there in the 1820 census living next door to Jonathan.
This tells me that the George Montgomery born 1793 in SC. was the son of
Jonathan Montgomery, and is most likely the son that Jonathan does NOT
name in his LW&T dated 1852.
George Montgomery, son of William was first found in the 1830 U.S. census
of Tippah County, Mississippi. He then removed north by 1840 into Tenn.
By 1850 he is with his youngest son James H. Montgomery born 1835 in Tenn.
William Montgomery born 1761 in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania
Jonathan Montgomery born September 1762 in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania
Both were in Carroll Co. Tenn. in 1832.
Both were mentioned as sons of William Montgomery in his LW&T
dated 1815 in Orange County, North Carolina.
The 2nd wife of this William Montgomery with LW&T dated 1815 was
Edie Harroll, and they were married in 1801.
I am told his 1st wife was a Hamilton??
