Russel Syrjala (Athol) and John Finnell (Athol) rolled home in this challenging race through Montague Center. Of course, everyone knows that Montague is in North-central Mass, due north of Amherst. Montague had a 1996 population of 8,383; 4,704 registered voters; and a median family income of $35k. Montague actually consists of five villages: Turners Falls, Montague City, Montague Center, Millers Falls, and Lake Pleasant. The town itself and the village, site of the first settlement in the town, was named after Capt. William Montague, an English sea captain. Capt. Montague was commander of the ship Mermaid at the first capture of Louisburg in 1745, seven years prior to the incorporation and naming of the town and 27 years after the first settlers arrived in Montague
