History
Prior to the Montana gold rush of the 1860s, a few members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints traded with Flathead Indians and settled in the area. Others were acquainted with Montana by following the Montana Trail from the Church’s Fort Lemhi settlement on Salmon River. The gold discovery, followed by the overland railway completion in 1869, attracted some Church members to Montana. In 1896, the Montana Mission was organized. In October 1897, Church leaders in Montana received the promise of religious freedom from Governor John E. Rickards. A meeting of 75 people was held in Anaconda, and a gathering of 300 met in Butte later that spring.
