The Manor of <strong>Lackham</strong> <strong>Vol</strong> 3 : The Montagu family<br />
The third son of Henry Montagu was called James and it was he who founded<br />
the <strong>Lackham</strong> line of the Montagu family. It is said that he was born at<br />
Boughton in 1602 174 and was admitted to Sidney College Cambridge 175 in<br />
January 1624 176 . He may have been the James Montagu who was MP for<br />
Huntingdon 1629 but this is not certain 177 . He bore the arms of the<br />
Montagu family with the mullet – five pointed star - difference of the third<br />
son (this is not always found in later generation’s depictions although it<br />
should be)<br />
