    1. Re: TYLER WORDEN, Montana GOP Activist in early 1900s
    2. This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/INB.2ACE/1313.1 Message Board Post: Worden is a relation to my New Brunswick family. Here is what I have accumulated on him so far: Tyler Worden, the son of Daniel Sargee Worden and Leah Elizabeth Vanwart, was born in 1861. He married Mattie Candace Landers, the daughter of William Landers and Martha E. Plummer, on 18 Jun 1887 in Missoula, Montana. She was born in Bureau County, Illinois circa 1869. Worden died 12 Jan 1921, while his wife passed away less than six months later on 07 Jun 1921, the victims of an epidemic that was widespread in the area at the time. Worden left for Montana in the 1880's in the footsteps of his uncle Coles Purdy Vanwart while the west was just opening up to settlement. A long time employee of the Missoula Merchantile Company, he was one of a select few residents of that state to attend the 1900 Republican National Convention. A rancher in later life, the Wordens resided at 400 East Pine Street. Joined by his brother Otis Worden in 1891, both returned home to New Brunswick for a visit during the summer of 1895: "Tyler Worden, a native of this county, but for many years a resident of the west, arrived in this city a few days ago, bringing with him a photograph of the Missoula fire department which he presented to Gus Tweedale who hung it up in the pumping station." Issue: Donovan, b. 23 Mar 1892 If you have any additional details, I would appreciate any and all info regarding Tyler and his offspring
