Dr. Joseph A. Tremblay
Silver Bow County
History of Montana, Sanders, 1913

A native of Canada, but since 1886 a resident of Montana, 
Dr.  Joseph A. Tremblay, county physician and surgeon of 
Silver Bow County, reflects great credit on the state and 
city of his adoption.  He has a large private practice, a 
beautiful home and an interesting family.

Dr. Tremblay was born in Lower Canada, on May 3, 1845.  He 
received his early academic training in the public schools 
and his professional instruction in the medical department 
of Victoria University.  He began his professional career 
at Marlboro Michigan, remaining there for a period of 
seventeen years.  In 1886 he came to Butte when what is 
now one of the greatest mining towns, was but a primitive 
and straggling village.  Here he has lived ever since 
except for seven years during which he was in active 
practice in Missoula.

His father, Julian Tremblay, was born in Canada and died 
there in 1873, at the age of fifty-five.  He was a 
prominent educator.  His wife, the mother of the doctor, 
Martinie (Robart) Tremblay, was also a native of Canada 
and died in that country at an early age.

Dr. Tremblay was married in Missoula to Miss Cathryne 
Nash, who died in Butte in 1903.  They were the parents 
of six children: Mrs. Mary T.C. Kelley, first born is a 
resident of Butte.  She has four children.  Mrs. Matilda 
M. Murray, resides in Seattle, Washington and has one 
child.  Julian Tremblay, the only son is attending 
Washington University in St. Louis Missouri.  Mrs. 
Rufina Kilpatrick has her home in Butte and is the 
mother of one child.  Miss Cirie and Miss Emedee 
Tremblay who are the only members of the family 
born in Butte, the others all being natives of 
Marlboro Michigan, are still living at home.
