Stories of the Bitterroot Stock Farm and the Daly Women Who Ran It

Following the 1900 death of her husband—famed copper king Marcus Daly—Margaret Daly continued to advance the work of the Bitterroot Stock Farm until her own death in 1941. Thereafter, the Daly’s granddaughter, Margit Sigray Bessenyey, carried on the family’s legacy, operating the stock farm until her passing in 1984. Introduction by Daly Mansion executive director Darlene Gould, and presented by Mansion Archives volunteer Maureen Lischke. To make sure she gets it right, Lischke is ably assisted by Margaret Daly herself (as portrayed by historical interpreter and educator Jodi Delaney).
