Druggist at Montgomery is Taken by Death
John D. Montgomery, 73, pioneer resident of Daviess county and for many
years a druggist at Montgomery, died Sunday afternoon following an
illness of several weeks. Mr. Montgomery was born in the county on
October 2, 1858 and had spent all his life there. He married Rose Disser,
who survives with two children. Three other children preceded the father
in death. The Montgomery family was one of the pioneer groups in Daviess
county and had been prominently identified with the progress of the
county for many years. The deceased formerly served as Daviess county
surveyor. Funeral services probably will be held Tuesday in St. Peter's
church at Montgomery with burial following in St. Peter's cemetery.
Surviving besides the widow are two children, C. J. Montgomery of Hammond,
Indiana and Mrs. J. C. Alberty of Washington. One brother, J. W. Montgomery
of Los Angeles, California and two sisters, Miss Sadie Montgomery and
Miss Elizabeth Montgomery, both of Montgomery, also survive.
