The drawing heading the post on the James Stuart mill was originally published in 1904 in the proceedings of the Montana Historical Society as part of an address on Montana History by W.A. Clark. The caption must date from later than 1867 as the mill did not become known as the Hope mill until approximately 1874 when the St. Louis and Montana Mining Company was reorganized as the Hope Mining Company. The date of the sketch itself is not known. The sketch however shows several wooden "wings" which were apparently not present in 1867 as they do not show up in Granville's Stuart's September 6, 1867 sketch of Philipsburg that depicts the mill.
Numerous photos in the blog are courtesy of Granite County Historical Society members. Of particular note are photos from the large collection of professional photographer and GCHS officer Steve Neal of Philipsburg. Other members also have substantial photo collections - for example, the photo of the mill in the Deidesheimer post is from Jim Waldbillig, and several other photos are provided by Dave Harris, Loraine Domine, or Ted Antonioli.
Hi! Wonderful post about a fascinating chapter of American history. I came for the Murray obelisk, but I'm curious about "the mill in the Deidesheimer post" above. My wife is from the part of Germany where, I'm guessing, the original Deidesheim resides (;^)), and, fun fact, it's a few minutes from there to the dinky town in SW Germany where Trump's ancestor AND the guy who invented Heinz ketchup are from.
ReplyDeleteTrue fact. I would additionally be very interested in using the image of the Murray obelisk in a book I'm working on now, and would like to know what steps to take to do this legally and with recognition of your fine organization. Thanks for this!

Your question about "the mill above" is too vague for me to answer as there a number of "mill" articles. Feel free to contact me at loraine.domine@gmail.com for more information. We have not investigated the ancestry of Deidescheimer.
