Anaconda Standard, January 15, 1904
Helena, Jan. 11 -- Julius Silverman, brother of Morris and Nathan Silverman of 
Helena, and a pioneer of Montana, died this afternoon at his residence, 47 
South Rodney street. He had been ill a number of months and for the past four 
months had been unable to leave his room. He was well known in Helena, being 
one of the old-timers of this city.

Mr. Silverman was 73 years old. He was born in Kalvaria, Poland where he was 
brought up. In 1861, together with his two brothers, he left home. They first 
went to England and then took a sailing vessel from Liverpool to the United 
States arriving in New York some months later. The brothers did not remain 
there long, however, but went to Titusville, Pa., soon afterward going to 
Leavenworth, Kan., from which place, in 1866 they crossed the plains to 
Montana. They came by way of old Fort Kearney across the Platte river to 
Julesburg and from there to Virginia City by way of Soda Springs.

Mr. Silverman, was highly respected in the community. He was an orthodox Jew 
and adhered to the old rites and customs as much as possible. At his own 
request, made a number of times before this death, there will be no flowers at 
the funeral, the arrangements for which have not yet been made. Mr. Silverman 
leaves two brothers in Helena, Moses Silverman and Nathan Silverman, the latter 
being the father of Mrs. David Pizer. The other members of his family surviving 
are four daughers: Mrs. S. cohen of Butte, Mrs. Sol Cohen of Wallace, Idaho, 
Misses Kate and Sarah Silverman, and two sons, Moses Silverman, traveling 
salesman for the Benn Greenwood company, and Sol Silverman, who is in Alaska. 
Mr. Silverman was a member of the Hebrew Benevolent society of Helena.
