Nicholas was Sheriff of Derby 1484, in 1485 he acted as an arbitrator in a dispute between Elena Delves widow of Sir John Delves and her son Ralph Delves of Doddington www.flickr.com/photos/52219527@N00/8019964555/ , He was knighted on 29 November 1489 at the investiture of Prince Arthur as Prince of Wales
The tomb was known to Benedicta widow of Henry Foljambe who after his death in 1503 asked in the contract with albastermen Henry Harpur and William Moorecock of Burton Upon Trent, for their tomb at Bakewell to be a "good as is the tomb of Sir Nicholas Montgomery of Colley (Great Cubley Derbys) with 18 images under the table and the arms upon them.............." which seems to have survived better www.flickr.com/photos/52219527@N00/6116635935/
On 14 December 1462 his father Nicholas Mountgomery, junior, son and heir of Eleanor (Chebsey) Mountgomery, deceased, late the wife of Nicholas Mountgomery, granted the remainder expectant upon the death of his father of a certain pasture called "Heymys" near Coldmorton in the fee of Chebsey.
In September 1465 his dying father placed him into the wardship of Ralph Wolseley. He had reached his majority before 1474, when he was Deputy Steward of the Honour of Tutbury under William, Lord Hastings, one of whose closest associates he became.
On 17 July 1472 John Stanley, knt, and Nicholas FitzHerbert esq. arbitrated in a dispute between Nicholas Montgomery esq. and Nicholas Agard of Sudbury and Isabel Montgomery, mother of the said Nicholas, regarding title to the manors of Sudbury and Aston and lands at Mackley Campion, Oakes, Potter Somersall, Waddeley, Somersall Herbert, Snelston and Leigh.
He was summoned by writ dated 5 June 1483 to be knighted at the intended coronation of Edward V on 22 June 1483. The ceremony however did not take place. He was made a Knight of the Bath at the creation of Prince Arthur as Prince of Wales on 29 November 1489.
He married Joan daughter of Sir John Delves of Doddington, Cheshire. In 1485 Nicholas acted as arbitrator in a dispute between his mother-in-law Elena Delves and brother-in-law Ralph Delves, widow and son respectively of the late Sir John Delves, and Sir Robert Sheffield of Lincolnshire, husband of a daughter of Sir John's eldest son.
He died on 3 August 1494. His tomb in Cubley church names his wife Joan, his sons Thomas and Walter and two other sons whose names have been defaced, and his four daughters Isabell (wife of Henry Sacheverell), Margaret (wife of John Kniveton), Ann (wife of Lewis Bagot), and Katherine (wife of Sir William Bowden).
On the north side of the tower [of Cubley church] are five shields, one of which has Montgomery quartering Chebsey, (?) and was probably intended for Ralph Montgomery, who died unmarried. The other four are Sacheverell (arg., on a saltire, az,, five water bougets, or) ; Kniveton (gu., a chevron vaire, arg. and sa., a martlett for difference) ; Bagot (arg., a chevron, gu., between three martlets, sab.); and Bowden (quarterly, sab. and or, in the first quarter a lion passant, arg.); each of them impaling Montgomery.
Sir John Vernon, fourth son of Sir Henry Vernon, of Haddon, married Ellen, daughter and co-heiress of Sir John Montgomery. The arms usually borne by Montgomery were— Or, an eagle displayed, az., number 12 on the quarterings; but there was an older coat borne by Montgomery in the thirteenth century — Erm., on a bordure, gu., twelve horse shoes, arg. (Harl. MSS., 6,589, Coll. of Arms MSS., L. 14). The tinctures differ on different rolls. We have no doubt that number 13 of these quarterings is intended for this coat, but not only have the tinctures been wrongly painted, but the horse shoes turned into what appear to be crescents, at sometime when the monument was restored. The Montgomeries subsequently quartered this coat with the spread eagle, and we believe it to be this coat that is intended to be represented on the tower of Cubley, and not that of Cheresey / Chebsey, as we have previously stated.
