Family tradition says his name is Theodore Jonas but it is more likely his name was Theodore James after his father.
Sarah and Theodore had the following children:
Alonzo "Lonzo" "Lonnie" Montgomery 1879–
Ida May Montgomery 1881–1966
Pearl Montgomery 1886–1987
Harry Lee Montgomery 1892–1957
Oda Theodore Montgomery 1893–1927
Rosetta " Rose" Clifford Montgomery 1898–1996
Family tradition also says he died in the "Storm of 1919" hurricane of Corpus Christi, Texas and was buried with the storm victims in a mass grave.
According to an account of the storm in Texas Parks and Wildlife Magazine from October 2004, "all the bodies were removed from the mass graves and interred at the Rose Hill Cemetery in Corpus Christi or other graveyards." [https://www.tpwmagazine.com/archive/2004/oct/legend/]
If Theodore's body was found, he might be buried at Rose Hill Cemetery.
