- Montgomery was an actual cowboy, born in Nebraska but raised in Montana, and was an expert at riding, roping and shooting. He began a small ranch in Montana, but economic conditions in the area doomed it to failure. A few of his ranch hands told him that they were leaving to take jobs in Hollywood as stuntmen in westerns. Montgomery decided to try it, found that stuntwork paid more and was less stressful than ranching, and made a career out of it.
- Father of child actress Baby Peggy
