Personal recollections(JMP)- Grandfather started to go blind when I was very young due to ret inal damage probably caused by the x-ray treatment he was given for acne in his youth. Fond m emories of going to the ice cream parlor in Seattle, Wash. for "secrets";that is, for mint ch ocolate chip ice cream cone that I wasn't supposed to tell mom about. He was a Beatles fan lo ng before I was and listned to them on the local radio station when we visited on our move Ea st in 1965 at the Torrance, California apartment. By that time he was totally blind
but still was able to take me on walks around his neighborhood and point out landmarks and pe ople that he knew only from conversation and description.
He was a graduate from Cornell University with a B.S. in chemistry but went to work in the ba nk in Williamsville from which he retired as a V.P. and head cashier of the Marine bank in 19 45 when they moved to California from NY.

He was the last Grov e owner of the 'big' house in Williamsville (Main and Forest). He is buried in the family plo t in the Williamsville Cemetery along with Lafayette and Charles C. Grove.

Louis GRUMMON was born in 1774 in Vermont. She appeared in the census in 1850 in Holland, Erie County, New York. (living with step-son Arad Colby.) She died in 1859 at Buffalo, Erie County, New York. Lois was married three times. Married Isaac Sabin 9 Mar 1825
===================================
Here is what I got from a descendant of hers - from before she married Ezekial Colby, of course.
"The information I have on Louis or Lois Montgomery is mostly from the National Archives Pension Application Files, War of 1812 Navy Widow, File No. 851. She is listed as Pensioner Louisa Colby, former widow of Archibald Montgomery, U.S. Flotilla - Pilot. Her name in the pension papers is usually Louis, but sometimes Lois, Louisa, or Lues.
[Note: While the name Louis is not common for women nowadays, I believe that is probably the correct spelling. There are other female members of the Grummon family named Louis. I can identify with it because my sixth grade teacher was a lady named Louis Faris!]
Her maiden name was Grummon. We believe she was born about 1874 [because she is listed as age 76 on the 1850 census]. A deposition from her brother Jedediah Grummon is included in the pension file, stating that he was present at her marriage to Archibald Montgomery on July 7, 1802 at his home in Adams, Oneida County, New York. (Adams is now in present day Jefferson
County, New York, which was formed from Oneida County in 1805.) Jedediah's two sons, Samuel and Stephen, also testified that they were present at the marriage.
Archibald Montgomery and Louis Grummon had four children:
1. Susanna Montgomery, born 26 June 1804 in New York. She married first a Pratt, and second Thomas Sawyer. She had four children by Thomas Sawyer, and was living in Chicago, Illinois in both 1850 and 1860.
2. Archibald Montgomery (Jr.) born 12 April 1807 in New York. He married Betsy Polly Kirk on 25 July 1837 in Hancock Co. Illinois. They were on the frontier of Texas by 1840 and in Arkansas by 1850. Only three of their nine children lived to adulthood. Archibald Jr. died of cholera aboard a steamboat at Paducah Kentucky while enroute to New York to visit his mother and to help in the pension application about 1854. His widow and children returned to Illinois after his death. This is my line.
3. Jesse Montgomery, born 16 February 1809 in Oneida Co. New York. He married first Louisa Scott, and second Mary Conner. He was the father of twelve children.
4. Julia Ann Montgomery, born 15 Oct 1813 in Oswego, Oswego Co. New York. She married David Forbes. They had four known children.Their birth dates are given in the pension application. I have more information on the children, if you are interested.
The family is listed in the 1810 census in Hamilton, Onondaga County, New York.
Archibald Montgomery (head of household) 1 male over 45 (probably Archibald himself), 1 female 26-44 (probably wife Louis), 1 female 16-25 (unknown), 2 males under 10 (probably sons Jesse and Archibald Jr.), 1 female under 10 (probably daughter Susanna)
Archibald Montgomery died Jan 30, 1814 in Sackett's Harbor, Oswego County, New York, of dysentery contracted while he was serving in the United States Navy during the War of 1812. He was a ship's pilot in the fleet of Commodore Chauncey, and served aboard the ships Hamilton, Madison and General Pike. According to the pension file, in October 1816, at Sandy Creek, Oswego Co. New York, Louis Grummon Montgomery married a man named John Giles. The marriage did not last long, and John Giles deserted the family soon after. Whether there was a divorce or not, I do not know.
In August 1851, she was granted a lump sum payment of the pension money due her for her approximately two and a half years of widowhood after Archibald Montgomery's death and her subsequent remarriage.
This second marriage is significant to her eligibility for a pension based on Archibald Montgomery's service, since that ended her status as his widow. Her subsequent marriages were not pertinent to the pension, and no information on them is in this file. The information you have on her marriage to Isaac Sabin on 9 Mar 1825 is the first I have on her third marriage. I have not located the original marriage license for her fourth marriage to Ezekial Colby on 1 Nov 1837/38. We knew she had married a Colby, but did not have Ezekial's given name.
She is listed on the 1850 census with the family of Arad and Hannah Colby on 21 Aug 1850 at Holland, Erie County, New York. Her name there is given as Louis Colby, age 76, born Vermont. She died about 1858 at Buffalo, Erie County, New York.
Since both Isaac Sabin and Ezekial Colby were Revolutionary War Veterans, I wonder if anyone has looked for a pension file for them, or for Louis as their surviving widow. The lawyer who submitted her claim for the back pay for her pension as the widow of Archibald Montgomery, seemed to specialize in this sort of thing. It is possible that Louis was eligible for a lump sum payment for her period of widowhood for both Archibald Montgomery and Isaac Sabin, and a monthly sum as the widow of Ezekial Colby. If we can find a pension application, particularly for her eligibility as the widow of Isaac Sabin, that could clear up the question of whether she married Ezekial Colby in 1837 or 1838.
