Notes from granddaughter, Elizabeth Cathey Maxson, taken from an interview with her mother, Beryl Montgomery Cathey, concerning William Arthur and Olive Elizabeth Welch Montgomery:
Olive Welch had gotten a job teaching at a school called Judd. It was not too far from Haskell, and she was staying with a family of the name Ivy. They had a son, Andrew, that was just a little bit older than Olive, who was at home, and he said he had some relatives in the Howard Community where her family had moved. He was telling her that he and this cousin had at one time bought suits alike, and of course now, they were old and they were wearing them for everyday.
One weekend, Olive wanted to go to visit her family, so Andrew said he would take her and would stay with the Montgomerys and when she got ready to come home, he would bring her back home. When they got close to where Olive's people were living, there was a road grader, and the man on the road grader was looking to see who was in the buggy. When he did he fell off. And so Olive said the first time she saw Arthur, he fell for her! They married in Dec. 1914, and I don't know whether they met in 1913 or 1914, and I don't know how long they went together. Anyway, when they decided to marry, Arthur's cousin, Beulah Osborne and the man she was going with, Ed Stodgill, decided they would have a double wedding. So they went in their buggies to Haskell and the judge stood between the couples (sitting in their buggies), and married them. They went back to Arthur's and Beulah's grandparents to spend the night, and when the two couples went to bed, one of Arthur's cousins had put rice in both beds. They had to get up and clean out the beds. They said when they were coming home after they were married, there was a blackbird on every post of the road, and they always said they were lovebirds.

- Title: John C. Montgomery
Text: Note from John C. Montgomery for photo of Montgomery Men: They (the two men on the right side of the photo) are Lee Stodghill (in uniform), older brother to Florine and Earline Stodghill, and Howar
d Malloy, first husband of Florine Stodghill and father of Trish Vosper. I am guessing that these were taken in 1941 or 1942 based on my age in them. Mother's album contains several other pictures of Lee, Florine and Howard as well as Beulah and Ed Stodghill, who were very close to our families when they lived in the Paint Creek community. The Stodghill girls attended the old Rose School, but I think they finished high school in Haskell. Lee Stodghill was the one who started their migration to California. He and some buddies went out to Los Angeles in 1939 according to a Haskell Free Press article. He liked it there enough to stay, and the girls soon followed.
