I "Googled" Senator Montoya's name and there are several articles about him.

One has this paragraph "Joseph M. Montoya was born in Peņa Blanca, New Mexico on September 24, 1915. His parents, Thomas and Frances Montoya, were descendants of eighteenth-century Spanish immigrants to New Mexico. Joseph received his early education in public schools in Sandoval County and graduated from Bernalillo High School in 1931. He continued his education at Regis College in Denver, Colorado. In 1934 he began law school at Georgetown University in Washington, D.C."

I did not find Joseph or the family in the census records of 1910, 1920 or 1930 - which may be because I don't know enough about the family.
