About Absarokee, Montana

Absarokee is a community of 1,000 people in Stillwater County, Montana, about 14 miles south of Columbus on Highway 78. The land here was once part of the Crow reservation, and from 1875 to 1884 the Second Crow Agency stood just south of where the town would grow. Under political pressure, Crow leaders agreed to give up 1.8 million acres, and a proclamation by President Benjamin Harrison opened this ground to settlers on October 15, 1892.

Sever Simonson and his family didn't wait for the proclamation. They arrived on October 4 and claimed squatter's rights where the Stillwater and East Rosebud Rivers meet. Simonson and his nephew, Oliver H. Hovda, put up a log hotel and opened a trading post, which later became the Absarokee Cooperative Trading Co. A saloon, a livery stable and a blacksmith shop came next, and on December 16, 1892, a post office opened in Simonson's home, with Simonson as postmaster.

  • Named for the CrowSimonson picked the town's name because he believed it meant "our people." It comes from Apsáalookěi, the name the Hidatsa gave the Crow, which means "children of the large-beaked bird." Absarokee is spelled differently from the nearby Absaroka Range, and the common explanation is that an early settler wrote the last "a" so badly that people read it as "ee."
  • The Big Yellow HouseJacob Wagner, a rancher from the area, built a two-story house on Woodard Avenue, the town's main street, in 1904. It became the home of Oliver H. Hovda, the co-founder of the trading post, and the Oliver H. Hovda House is now on the National Register of Historic Places.
  • Five graduates in 1922Absarokee's Cobblestone School was finished in 1921 and was fully accredited from the start, with three full-time teachers. The next year five students became the town's first graduating class. The Sandstone and Cobblestone Schools are now on the National Register of Historic Places.
