We're looking for DATA for this site!!!
If you are interested in adding your families' information this website, email us. We'll be happy to help your families'
obituaries, news items and other historical data find a home here at Montana Genealogy Trails, where it will remain
free for all to view.
WE REGRET THAT WE ARE UNABLE TO DO PERSONAL RESEARCH FOR
YOU.
ALL DATA IS ADDED TO THE SITE AS WE COME ACROSS IT, SO IF IT IS NOT HERE, WE DON'T HAVE ACCESS TO IT.

The county of Sweet Grass (two words) is located
in south central Montana (Note: The town of Sweetgrass is not in this county).
Sweet Grass County became a county in 1895. It was formed out of parts of Park, Meager, and Yellowstone Counties.
From 1910-1920 parts of Sweet Grass County were taken to form Stillwater, Wheatland and Golden Valley Counties.
It has been its present size since 1920.
Bigger than the State of Rhode Island, the county is 1,846 square miles – 449 of which are public lands. The eastern
and northerparts of the county are devoted to agriculture, mostly the raising of cattle and sheep. Some farming
of crops that require little moisture is also done.

We're looking to add the transcribed data from the vital records, biographies from the county histories as well
as the county history information itself, transcriptions of obituaries, burial data from cemetery trompings and/or
readings, the data from military pensions and other service records; enumerations from census years, any newspaper
gleanings for the family members including birth announcements, marriage announcements, death notices/obits and
anything in between - in short, the data you used to build your family tree (rather than the tree itself since
we don't have the space or manpower to accept gedcoms and trees)
