After the death of Hugh Montgomery’s parents in 1857, they moved to Massachusetts and settled in South Hadley Falls. Hugh Montgomery worked in the paper industry and eventually had his own factory. Achsah Maria Dimmock and Hugh Montgomery lived in South Hadley for the remainder of their lives with their children and grandchildren nearby.
