Worth visiting!

My maternal grandfather and great uncles..

went to school in the little school house that is preserved in Eureka Montana’s Tobacco Valley Historical Village. Their father-my great grandpa used to be the ferryman to help people cross the Kootenai River back and forth to Rexford. My grandma & grandpa met at a grange dance in this area. When the Libby Dam was built the reservoir that formed behind it backed up all the way into Canada and flooded Rexford the little town where they grew up. The Kootenai River was renamed the KooCANUSA.
Years later, after they both passed away, we spread their ashes into the KooCanUsa Reservoir.

Worth visiting!

Very nice

... little small town museum. Several old buildings, homes, schools, cabins, etc, that have been restored and stocked with items from the early 1900’s. Lots of local history.
Also, a nice setting at the south end of town near the river, with lots of nice grassy area and many trees for shade.
