The town of Montgomery was granted a charter by the Vermont General Assembly on March 15, 1780. Montgomery was named in honor of General Richard Montgomery (1738–1775), an Revolutionary War leader who was the first American general to die in battle.
The Montgomery Historical Society was formed in 1974. The society was initially created to acquire and restore the St. Bartholomew's Episcopal Church in Montgomery Village.
In 2008, the state notified residents of the town, and twelve other towns in the adjacent counties of Lamoille and Orleans, that a review of health records from 1995 to 2006 had revealed that residents within 10 miles (16 km) of the former asbestos mine on Belvidere Mountain had higher than normal rates of contracting asbestosis. The state and federal government continues to study this problem. A critic replied that the entire basis of the study were three unidentified people who died from asbestosis from 1995 to 2005 out of a total population of 16,700.
