Felix Ludger St. Jean
History of Montana, Sanders, 1913

Among the successful physicians and progressive men of 
Anaconda, should be mentioned Dr. Felix L. St. Jean.  
He has been a resident of Anaconda for twenty-five years or 
more, and during this time has risen to prominence not only 
in his profession but as a businessman and able man of 
affairs.  A man now in his prime, the doctor has had 
years of valuable experience.

Dr. St. Jean was born in Sherrington Canada, on the 
9th of March 1864.  His father was Ludger St. Jean, 
who was born in Canada and is now living in Anaconda, 
where he follows commercial pursuits.  His mother was 
Sophia Vautrin, also a native of Canada, who is also 
living in Anaconda.  The doctor received his early 
education in the Montreal normal schools and was sent 
to Laval University from which he was graduated in the 
class of 1889 with the degree of M.B.M.D., C.M.  He came 
to Montana before completing his course of study at the 
University arriving in Anaconda  in 1886.  Upon receiving 
his diploma he came directly to Anaconda and there 
entered upon the practice of his profession.  His 
practice has grown with the years and now Dr. St. 
Jean has a large clientele both in the city and 
surrounding country.  He has built and now owns 
several business blocks and is also the owner of 
a beautiful home.  In a business way he is 
especially interested in mining and mineral lands.  
In 1890 he became the organizer of the Butte and 
Georgetown Mining and milling Company which owns a 
large ore  and gold-bearing placer mines.

Dr. St. Jean is particularly fond of spending a few 
weeks each year in a camp out of reach of civilization.  
His automobile is also a great source of pleasure and he 
and his wife spend much time driving around the country 
and visiting the mining camps.

Dr. St. Jean was married to Miss Rosabel N. Nadau in 
Butte in 1893.  Mrs. St. Jean was born in the town of 
Central Falls Rhode Island.  Four children have been 
born to them: Aline Marie and Irene Martha are now in 
high school; Felix Albert and Jeanette Eugenie.
