Misc. Notes

Research
Family tradition has Otis Montgomery as one of the four brothers. Nor is it certain whether the dates provided by this source are trustworthy.

Listed as Otis V. [16] Full name listed as “Otis Van Cleve”. [22] I’m going to use “Vancleave” as that’s what I’ve been using up to now for the last name of Fred’s ancestors.
