His older brother [[Montgomery-643|Hugh]] died before his father, leaving the younger John as the successor to his estates.Thomas Harrison Montgomery, ''A genealogical history of the family of Montgomery: including the Montgomery pedigree'' (Philadelphia: H. B. Ashmead, 1863), p. 49-52, digital images, https://archive.org/stream/genealogicalhist00mont#page/49/mode/1up/, The Internet Archive (https://archive.org : accessed 20 September 2019).

=== Family === Published sources vary significantly in the identification of the children and the spouses.
Thomas Harrison Montgomery's ''A genealogical history of the family of Montgomery'' (1863) indicates just one spouse and six children.
John married [[Maxwell-364|Margaret Maxwell]], daughter of Robert Maxwell of Caerlaverock. They had the following three sons and three daughters:

* [[Montgomerie-106|Alexander]]
* [[Montgomery-645|Robert]], of Giffen, of Giffen * [[Montgomery-650|Hugh]], mentioned in a charter in 1452.

* [[Montgomerie-91|Anne]]* [[Montgomerie-86|Janet]], was the second wife of [[Boyd-688|Thomas Boyd of Kilmarnock]]., also known as Joanna* [[Montgomery-648|Isabel]], married Archibald Mure of Rowallan.
''The Scots Peerage'' identifies a second wife [[Isles-14|Agnes of the Isles]]. He also identified Margaret Maxwell as a second but with a different father, Herbert Maxwell of Carlaverock.
By Agnes (who died before March 1413/1414), his first wife, three children are conclusively identified and two others are considered inconclusive.

* Alexander
* Robert
* Agnes, married Robert Cunningham

Inconclusive children are:
* Joanna, married to Thomas Boyd
* Isabella, Archibald Muir of Rowallan
