Antoine Montz, who was a doctor and graduate of Tulane University, New Orleans

Jacques Numa Montz, who operated a cooperage shop in Reserve, La.

Maurice Montz, who was chief of operations at a sugar plantation, in Lions, La.

Adolph Montz, an engineer on the railroad out of New Orleans, La.

Pierie Montz, an overseer.

Miss Rosa Montz, who with Miss Henri Montz and Miss Marie Montz, conducted schools at one time or another.

Marie Montz, who was a school teacher.

Miss Ida Montz, who had a private school on the property of Dana Montz.

A. Montz, who operated an ice factory and truck farm in LaPlace, Louisiana.

A.M. Montz, who was consul commander of the Woodsman of the World in 1912. He was also chairman of the Board for LaPlace Gas and Fuel Company.

THE FACT TO BE DRAWN OUT OF THIS IS THAT NOT ONLY the occupations were all that important, but the fact that these people did what they liked best, and lived in the same area for so long with their family. Family ties were important then.

IT IS ALSO IMPORTANT TO KNOW THAT OF THE OCCUPATIONS THAT existed, so many of the Montz generations stayed with their occupations for so long. My grandfather who start as a water boy in the fields of sugar cane at age 14, retired as chief engineer for a plantation after over 57 years of service.
