Content Description: The Golden Valley Historical Society organization committee records include positive photocopies of three essays. "William Otis Pound" is a brief biographical essay prepared by his son, Robert T. Pound, in 1967 that describes Pound's arrival in Montana and places of residence prior to his settlement on Current Creek between the Musselshell River and the Snowy Mountains. "Rygate of 1909" was prepared by Dave Rorabeck of College Place, Washington in 1966. This reminiscence describes Rorabeck's childhood memories of homesteading along the Musselshell River. A handwritten biographical statement by Eugene Wieber gives the background on his family of the Clara, Montana area and his subsequent residence in Laurel, Montana. The collection also includes a typewritten signed letter from Mary Morsanny to Paugh explaining the activities of the Golden Valley Historical Society organization committee and listing the names of several other county residents who had an interest in preserving local history.
