Territorial Legislators, 1864-1876

 

For an excellent set of resources on the history of the Montana Legislature please visit the Legislature's "Facts and Statistics" page, particularly the extensive list of House and Senate leadership.

Most of this information was taken from the following sources:

• Helena Weekly Herald
• Helena Daily Independent
• Atlas of Montana Elections, 1889-1976, by Ellis Waldron and Paul B. Wilson (Missoula: University of Montana, 1978)
• Montana Politics since 1864: An Atlas of Elections, by Ellis L. Waldron (Missoula: Montana State University Press, 1958)
• Montana Legislators, 1864-1979: Profiles and Biographical Directory, by Ellis Waldron (Missoula: Bureau of Government Research, University of Montana, 1980)
• Montana Directory of Public Affairs, 1864-1955, compiled by Ralph E. Owings (Ann Arbor, Mich.: Edwards Brothers, Inc., 1956)
• Montana Historical Society Research Center Vertical Files

 

A NOTE ABOUT PARTY AFFILIATION: Listing of party affiliation of nominees in elections and members of the Legislature during the Terriorial period was very uncommon.  We have attempted to discern party affiliation where possible through biographical sources and newspapers of the time, but the lists are noticably incomplete.
