For the Daily Light
Newly-elected Ellis County District Attorney Ann Montgomery wasn’t born and raised here in Waxahachie, but since her arrival in the spring of 2016 she’s made her mark on the city and has been heavily involved in the local government process ever since.
Montgomery was sworn into her new position on Jan. 1, 2021.
Born and raised near Cleburne in Johnson County, Montgomery is the daughter of the late Mr. and Mrs. Billy Gene Montgomery. She says, “The last few years have been hard for me, as I lost my mother in 2018 and then my father passed away in 2019. Both lived in Cleburne at the time of their deaths.”
