Montanye, Thomas B

Montanye, Thomas B.

a Baptist minister, was born in New York in 1769. He began preaching when quite young, and was in 1788 ordained pastor of the Baptist society in Warwick, N.Y., where he remained until 1801, when he accepted a call from the Church in Southampton, Bucks County, Pa., which situation he held until his death, September 27, 1829. He was a truly popular preacher, and on account of his talents and piety his services came to be much sought after for ordinations, councils, and especially religious anniversaries, yet none of his works have been published. See Sprague, Annals, 6:265.
