I have the address where my grandfather was born
310W Quartz Montana.
Neither of them resided at this address in 1905.
There was a "Jenny Jenson listed in the 1904 directory (unusual for a female to be listed - not head of house) but she lived in Talbot ave.

Thank you so much people for your rapid responses.
I'm not sure what IGI is but I've gone through records on Ancestry.com, been ripped off at records.com,
contacted and paid for three searches in Montana.
My grandfathers fathers name was "William Matthews" he was born in Bathurst N.S.W. Australia. He was a miner. He left here in around 1900 his children were born in Butte Montana Arthur (My GrandFather) 1905 and his sister Ellen 1907.
William brought both children back here around 1913.
William died in 1937 in Bulli N.S.W. Australia.

I have been trying to track down information about my great grandmother "Jennie Jenson" now for some time. I have tried census, contacting BD&M in Montana etc. I continually come up with nothing. It is though she never existed. The only concrete evidence I have is her name on my grandfather birth certificate. This was a belated certificate issued in 1951 even though he was born in Butte Montana 1905.
Can ANYONE help?
