Found a marraige of Thomas Montague to an Elizabeth Mays 13 July 1777 St. Dunstans and All Saints Stepney , Borough Tower Hamlets
Looks a bit too early though, dosent it ?

Hi Hazelnut....maybe as uncertain of Dob so maybe we are on the right path....have no further info except what I gave earlier so have to 'gestimate' the dob...is ther anything else about this Monty ? And, thank you

If Micheal was borrn 1796 then they were late for starting a family but, have come across it before on my Grandmothers side too.

You need to get copies of the original basptism / marriage entries whic are on line at a well known site, there are also 2 researchers with trees on this iste, one public the other private.

Hi Hazelnut

Sorry I did'nt get back sooner and, really appreciate your hardwork. Found more Monty's going back to the 1640's these all came from Buckinghamshire a small place called Hughendon, Waddesdon and St Monks Risborough and all tie in with family in Islington. Willl check and double check but, all hail from what is now London. Once more I cant thank you enough and, I am truly indebted to you.
