The Orgains from Montgomery County are in my family.Lucky you!My grandmother is Irma Orgain Mathews from Montgomery County.She used to live at Orgain's Crossroads.It once belonged to Griffin Orgain and was passed down.The information that you want can be mostly found at http://resources.rootsweb.com/http://resources.rootsweb.com/from there pick USA Counties.It will then ask what state.Pick TN.It will then list counties.Pick Montgomery.This will give you a list of sites related to Montgomery County.There are two listed with the same name.Folk Finders: Tombstone Transcriptions.Go there.If you search there is a lot of info. about Orgain's in Montgomery County, starting with Benjamin Orgain and wife Susannah Edmondson married in 1797 in Virginia and moved with children to Montgomery County.All of the Orgains in Montgomery county came from these two.Hope this helps.There are wills and obits at this site.Search it throughly and you will find a lot.I am pretty sure Minerva shows up too.
