Water is conveyed to Brady ranches and farms through Muddy Creek from a reservoir 30 miles to the west.(from Cheney's <I>Names on the Face of Montana</I>, Mountain Press Publishing Company)</p><p>Brady is probably named for the Brady brothers of Great Falls. Thomas E. Brady was attorney for the Great Falls & Canada Railway and held extensive agricultural and irrigation interests in Teton County. His brother, Charles A. Brady was a Great Falls physician. Charles died in February 1908 and Thomas in September 1909. A month after Thomas's death, the Brady Townsite Company incorporated. Brady is now predominantly a grain distribution center. It is the birthplace of actor George Montgomery (1916 - 2000).(Copyright 2009, <I>Montana Historical Society: Montana Place Names from Alzada to Zortman</I>, Montana Historical Society Research Center Staff)</p> |
