Granville Stuart (August 27, 1834 – October 2, 1918) was an American pioneer, gold prospector, businessman, civic leader, vigilante, author, cattleman and diplomat who played a prominent role in the early history of Montana Territory and the state of Montana.[2] Widely known as "Mr. Montana",[3] Granville's life spanned the formative years of Montana from territorial times through the first 30 years of statehood.[4] His journals and writings have provided Montana and western historians unique insights into life in the Northern Rocky Mountains and Great Plains during the second half the 19th century.[5]
