 The Bair Family Museum Martinsdale, MT Harlowton boasts a history filled with the movements of cowboys and settlers of the West, mining endeavors in the area mountains, Richard Harlow and the Jawbone Railroad, and the historic Milwaukee Road with its electric trains. Today, these memories can be recaptured in many ways. Libraries and the internet can be an assist to you. But, better yet, come visit our highly regarded museums.  The Upper Musselshell Museum (with two buildings on Central Avenue in Harlowton) offers a treasure trove of central Montana history plus Avaceratops (dinosaur). The Bair Family Museum in nearby Martinsdale displays the eclectic collections of rancher, entrepreneur and adventurer, Charles M. Bair and his own treasured daughters, Marguerite and Alberta. The City-County Preservation Committee is readying the old Milwaukee Depot to be an indoor and outdoor gallery of railroad memorabilia. Look for it to open in 2007. Both the Milwaukee Depot and the Graves Hotel are on the National Historic Registry Historic Harlowton Photos Courthouse Monuments |
