Lived in his families' home, 404 Madison Street, Portland, most of his life. Never married and had health problems all of his adult life. Schooled in private ones. Work that his mother said he performed were ranchman, electrician, sportsman and a man of leisure. Loved his horses and having a good time. Enjoyed hunting and spent much time at this pursuit. Some of it was done far out of state. Because of his health problems his parents gave him more freedom to pursue his own interests which he did with vigor. His father had land holdings in Washington, Oregon, Idaho, Montana and possibly California. His father's brother farmed in California for many years and raised his family there. Many of his uncles papers are today in the archives of the University of California and of these some can be seen on the internet.

Cause of death, 19 days of illness, blood poisoning and prostate infection and secondary hemorrhage. Interment was on 07 June 1899, in the James Bryce Montgomery plot, in River View Cemetery, Portland.
