Notes

"Philip Ludwell, Jr. of Greenspring," James City county, was a son of the Philip Ludwell, who was so long a prominent figure in the colony, and was born at "Carter's Creek," Gloucester county, Feb. 4, 1672. His father's influence and large estate brought the son into public life at an early age and he was chosen speaker of the house of burgesses in 1695, being probably the most youthful occupant of that chair. On May 14, 1702, on the recommendation of the governor, the Queen appointed him a member of the council. Though recommended by Nicholson, Ludwell was one of the party who opposed him and finally succeeded in having him removed from office. Ludwell's official life appears to have continued to run smoothly, he sat regularly at the meetings of the council, was appointed one of the trustees of the new college at Williamsburg in 1706, and 1709 was made a commissioner on the part of Virginia for establishing the boundary line with North Carolina. In 1711 he was appointed auditor of Virginia by Gov. Spotswood, who seems at first to have been favorably impressed with him. The good will between them did not last, however. The Ludwells, always on the side of the people, did not hesitate to oppose the governor in what they considered usurpations of the popular rights, and accordingly, when the clash between the house of burgesses and Spotswood occurred, the colonel sided with the former. So highly was the governor incensed that he suspended Ludwell from the office of auditor and accused him of mismanagement of the finances. There was a considerable dispute over this order, but the English authorities finally upheld Spotswood and appointed another in Ludwell's place. This did not, however, discourage that gentleman in his resistence to the governor, and in 1718 he sided with Commissary Blair in his dispute with Spotswood relative to the appointment of ministers to the Virginia churches. In this matter they were entirely successful in their opposition to him, though this and other disputes continued for sometime. These differences were finally composed in 1720, after which date there is scarcely any record of Ludwell's public life save the reports of his constant attendance at the council. He died Jan. 11, 1726-27." (Green Spring was the former residence of Sir William Berkeley).

Notes

"In the year 1768, William Montgomery resided in Augusta Co., VA, but in what neighborhood we do not know. In 1769, William Montgomery and Jean, his wife, removed with the Campbells, Logans and others to the Holston. (Now Washington Co., TN) In the new settlement, young Benjamin Logan wooed and married Montgomery's daughter Anne. The Montgomerys followed Benjamin Logan to KY in 1779 and made a settlement 12 miles from "Logan's Fort." It was here that an Indian massacre occurred. Some of the family were marched off as captives or killed. The survivors were William, Jane and Betsey Montgomery. The Jane Montgomery mentioned became the wife of General Casey of KY and was the grandmother of the famous humorist "Mark Twain."
