MONTGOMERY: seeking information
on JAMES SMYLIE MONTGOMERY. 1880 Census shows him living on Orange Ave.
in Natchez and he was the Supt. of Education. Family story says he died
in a Veteran's Home. Was there such a home in Natchez? He was not the head
of the household in the 1886 city census so he may have been dead or living
