[S466] Alexander Spotswood, Alexander Spotswood Descendants. [S479] (Virginian-Pilot and the Norfolk Landmark), 27 May 1916. [S460] (Religious Herald). Mr. J. J. Montague, who died at his home in Richmond on Monday, November 14, at the ripe age of ninety-five, was our cherished friend for something like a half century. He was a business man of high type, upright, careful, and strictly conscientious. During all the period of our acquaintance with him, he was a member of the Second Baptist church, quiet, loyal, faithful. At the time of his death he was the oldest trustee, both in years and in term of service, on the Board of the University of Richmond. He leaves to his family the legacy of an unusally long and excellent life, lived in the midst of a people whom he loved, and lived without serious blemish of any kind. For a year or more before he entered into rest, he was an invalid, but bore his limitations and infirmities with Christian patience and serenity. [S457] (The Richmond News Leader), 16 November 1932. Services At Home For J. J. Montague Large Gathering Attends Rites for Prominent Richmond Man Funeral services for J. Judson Montague for many years a distinguished figure in the business and civic life of Richmond, who died Monday afternoon at his home, 811 West Franklin street, in his 95th year, were held at the home at 11 o'clock today and were attended by a large gathering representative of old Richmond families and of the various organizations with which Mr. Montague had been connected officially in former years. The services were conducted by Rev. Solon B. Cousins, D. D., pastor of the Second Baptist church, and Rev. Beverley D. Tucker, Jr., D. D., rector of St. Paul's Episcopal church. Mr. Montague was born Sept. 4, 1838, in Norfolk county, Va., but it was with this city that most of his business career had been associated. After serving with distinction in the Confederate army he established his residence more than half a century ago in Richmond and became an outstanding figure in the city's activities. He was a former president of the old Planters National bank and also of the Lyon & Montague Lumber Company. Surviving Mr. Montague are his widow, Mrs. Anne Lieper Turner Montague; a son, Carroll H. Montague; a daughter, Mrs. J. Preston Carson, and three grandsons, Theodore M. Carson, J. Preston Carson, Jr., and Carroll P. Montague.
