Betsy,
I don't have a direct connection with your Henry & Lydia Montgomery yet, but most likely he is a descendant of this Henry Montgomery I'm working on:
Henry Montgomery, born about 1829, possibly in Randolph Co., (W)VA; married 2 Feb 1847 in Lewis Co., (W)VA to Sarah Ours; known children: 1) Samantha Montgomery, born 9 Mar 1848, Lewis Co., (W)VA, married 24 March 1872 to Minter Jackson Turner, she died 4 Apr 1927; 2) Susannah Montgomery, born Jan 1850, Lewis Co., (W)VA, died 25 Sep 1862, Lewis Co., (W)VA; 3) John Miffin Montgomery, born Jan 1852, Lewis Co., (W)VA, married 10 Nov 1873 to Virginia Catherine Devania, he died 15 Sept 1925; 4) Clarissa Montgomery, born 1 Nov 1853, Lewis Co., (W)VA, married 6 July 1871 Lewis Co., WV to Newton Barnes Turner, she died 3 Apr 1915 Lewis Co., WV; 5) Jacob Minter Montgomery, born 10 Apr 1856, Lewis Co., (W)VA, married 2 Jun 1874 to Hannah Barnett, he died 1913; 6) Harriet Montgomery, born 16 Jan 1858, Lewis Co., (W)VA, died 16 Jun 1865 from whooping cough; 7) Mary Ann Montgomery, born 22 Jun 1860, Lewis Co., (W)VA, died 25 Oct 1862 from Diptheria; 8) Rebecca A. Montgomery, born 1863, Lewis Co., WV, died 4 Jun 1865 from whooping cough.
Henry's parents are John & Rebecca (Long) Montgomery. Let me know if you can make a connection. I'm sure your apart of this same Montgomery family from Lewis Co., WV. I descend through Henry's brother, Isaac, born 23 Jan 1825.
