Title: De Viry Francis MONTAGU 1846-??
Post by: Eyesee on Tuesday 17 March 26 05:49 GMT (UK)

He was born in Hobart, Tasmania in 1846, younger son of Alfred Otter MONTAGU and Eliza Anna Maria VIGOUREUX, who were married on Jersey in 1837.

Alfred was a barrister and jointed his brother Algernon MONTAGU, a judge in Hobart in the early 1840s. Alfred drowned at Hobart in 1849.

By 1851 De Viry was on Jersey with his aunt Louisa BALLEINE nee VIGOUREUX. His mother Eliza was at Alverstoke, Hampshire with another sister in 1851.

In 1861 De Viry was still on Jersey, at school at St Helier. His mother is still in Hampshire, Matron at the Lunatic Asylum at Fareham.

After 1861 De Viry/De Very/De Verre MONTAGU seems to have disappeared. Can anyone find him on Jersey. He may have left the islands though and gone elsewhere.

His mother Eliza died in Hampshire in 1870.

Thanks
