William Kennedy (Montana)
William J. Kennedy (August 18, 1835 – January 18, 1904) was a miner, restaurant and hotel proprietor, and the 8th mayor of Missoula, Montana.〔
==Earl Life==
Kennedy was on August 18, 1835 in Ohio to James and Catherine Kennedy. He was raised on a farm and worked in Ohio hotels until 1855 when he enlisted in the 10th U.S. Infantry for five years. He spent the next five years prospecting in northern California, Idaho, and Alberta before taking up ranching in Helena, Montana.
Kennedy and his family remained on the Prickly Pear ranch until 1869, during which time he and his family survived being surprised and captured by sixteen Indians near the top of the Dearborn River. Supposedly, the Indians held a vote on whether the group should be massacred or not. When the vote ended in a tie, the Indians asked the "half-breed" accompanying Kennedy to break the tie. Naturally, he voted to spare the group and the family was spared. After sending his family back east and following the gold rush for a couple more years, Kennedy eventually settled in Missoula, Montana.〔
