Gay Montague Daniel. (2348)

BRANCH OF HIS SON PETER. 317 enabled to take the old, moth-eaten, unindexed records from the court house at Saluda, and carry them to their home at Church View, often too, at considerable inconvenience to themselves and to Mr. Daniel, by whose aid they were obtained. Here, at their leisure, they brought to light the ancient records which have enabled the compiler to connect the various branches with Peter Montague No. 1. Besides this valuable aid rendered, Mrs. Daniel has furnished many records relating to Middlesex Co. families, whose records were hitherto obscure and difficult to obtain. The kindest thanks of the entire Montague family are due to this estimable lady for her labors, often arduous, in their behalf. 2343 2344 2345 CHILDREN. (By Mr. Fleet.) Kate E., b. Jan. 1, 1859.

Her interest in this work has been unceasing, b. Oct. 4, 1871. b. July 21, 1S74. The very best thanks and most hearty admiration of the entire Montague family both now living and of posterity hereafter, are due to this noble young lady for valuable service rendered this work. The ancient records of the county dating back to 16S0, were brought (as stated above) from Saluda C. H. by her father, who expected with the aid of his wife to copy them for this work. Some of these records are worm-eaten and obscure from age, and it was found difficult to read them. Although obtained at considerable trouble, they bid fair to remain a "sealed book" until Miss Gay, coming in from school, (though scarcely sixteen years of age), took the matter in hand, successfully read and copied them, and triumphantly sent them to the compiler.
