The following is from [email protected],com The Four Georgians were John Cowan, D.J. Miller, Reginald Stanley and John Crab. (Digest V98 #113) Also from #113 - "the following which mentions a Rusk with Cowan, but not William." ---"During the first winter dissatisfaction prevailed even in the discovery party. Gold finds were reported in the Nelson Gulch, and Crabb, an Iowan, whose strong northern sympathies did not harmonize with his Alabama and Georgian partners, sold out his interests to Miller and two nephews of Cowan, named Frank Cowan, and Robert Rusk.-----" Stanley was born in England. May I suggest you contact the Montana State Historical Society, 225 N. Roberts, Helena, Montana 59620. There is also a genealogical society in Helena, and the [email protected] is a great place to post a query, as well as the Montana GenWeb page.
