W Give me some time to do some research. I have not worked that much on the Montgomery line. I have a somewhat archaic method. I put together a strawman contining names regardless of accuracy. Then, link by link verify. I have a small advantage in that the Montgomerys kept records

I am not sure what this means to the tree. From dad to son came a time when dad had no son and the title (or whatever) went to a brother,.

The clan montgomery once they acquired land in England and began to go forth and multiiply, the usual difficulties became to arise. A did not like B; moved out to Scotland Others went to Wales some to Ireland and religion played a large part. In the Battle of Boyne one had montgomeries on both sides.
