William Treacy, M. D.— There is no line of human endeavour which demands of its votaries a more scrupulous preliminary training and discipline, or requires a heart and mind more deeply in touch with determinate sympathy, than that of the medical practitioner. He who would essay the healing art must be endowed with a broad spirit of humanitarianism and must hold himself and his talents in constant readiness and willingness to succour those in affliction. The noble profession has in Helena a worthy and able representative in the person of Dr. Treacy, who is recognized as one of the leading physicians and surgeons of the state and who has won precedence by his high professional talents and genial personality. The Doctor is of stanch old Irish lineage, and was born in the province of Ontario, Canada, on December 3, 1856, the son of John and Caroline (Weir) Treacy, natives of Ireland and Canada. His father, an architect and surveyor, and a graduate of the famed University of Dublin, emigrated to America in 1850, becoming a resident of Canada, where he survived his wife and still maintains his home. Dr. William Treacy, of Helena, was reared and educated in Canada, completing his more purely literary education in Toronto University. In 1882 he made his advent in Montana, locating for a time at Three Forks. Prior to this, however, he had graduated in 1877 from Rush Medical College, of Chicago, one of the leading medical schools of the Union. While in Chicago he was employed by the Northern Pacific Railroad to give medical attention to its employees, and the year of 1885 he passed in the Cook county hospital, gaining valuable experience in clinical work and more strongly reinforcing himself in medical knowledge. In 1886 he came to Helena, where he has since been engaged in the active practice of his profession, save for intervals in which he has taken post-graduate courses in New York and Chicago. The Doctor is thoroughly en rapport with his profession and stands in the front rank as exemplifying the modern sciences of medicine and surgery. It is scarcely necessary to say that a gratifying success has attended his efforts, for his zeal and ability renders this a natural sequence. He is not only a member of the state and county medical societies, but is identified with the American Medical Association, and is also president of the state board of health, the most notable health organization of the United States. He also holds member- ship in the American Association of Railway Surgeons, to which he is entitled as local surgeon for the Northern Pacific Railroad. His professional precedence has been farther indicated by his service on the United States board of pension examiners and as surgeon for Fort Harrison for eighteen months. The Doctor is a Republican, and fraternally is identified with various social organizations. His marriage to Miss Isa Lear was solemnized in 1883, Mrs. Treacy being a native of Indiana. They have three children, John L., Louise and Fred, and the family home has a fine atmosphere of culture and refinement. Progressive men of the state of Montana by Bowen, A.W., & Co.,

Three Forks, in the vicinity of what was once
known as Gallatin City, and close to the historical spot where Father De Smet
parted with his Flat-Head neophytes in 1840, was the third dependency to have a
chapel. It was erected here in 1885 by Father Joseph Guidi, S. J., who had now
returned for a while to Helena. The site, consisting of half a block, was
donated by a non-Catholic corporation, which contributed, besides, $200 in cash
towards the construction of the edifice. Dr. William Treacy, so well known
to-day in our midst as a leading physician and most honorable gentleman, was at
this time a resident of Three Forks, and though a non-Catholic himself, served
on the Building Committee, and proved to be one of the most useful and
efficient members. The new church was blessed by Bishop Brondel, July 25, 1886,
and given the title of the Holy Family.

A graduate of Chicago’s prestigious Rush
Medical College, Dr. William Treacy set up practice in Helena in 1886. He
pioneered the use of antiseptics and was the first in Helena to perform
surgery using sterilized instruments and aseptic techniques. Previously,
simple washing was the standard method. He and his wife, Isa, built this home
and filled it with art, especially paintings by Ralph DeCamp. Dr. Treacy took
care of artist Charlie Russell, and the artist recuperated here in the 1890s
when he broke his leg. In gratitude, Russell gave the family The Antelope
Hunt, painted in 1897. The painting was donated to the Montana Historical Society
in 1974. Dr. Treacy died in 1912, but Isa kept the house until 1935. Jesse Chaney, Independent Record http://helenair.com/william-treacy-home-w-lawrence-c/image_5c872abd-0199-5f77-8c06-49bdf0549fa1.html January 30, 1972 The Montana Standard
(Butte, Montana) ...Dr. William L. Treacy, who came to
Montana in 1875, to take care of the men who labored to construct the
Northern Pacific Railroad, was a surgeon, skilled in operations and dealing
with fractures. While he was on a trip to the Three Forks area (so the story
goes) one night a band of horse thieves stole all the horses in Three Forks,
including Dr. Treacy's horse. Late the following night, a man rapped on the
doctor's door and asked him to go to the mountains with him to see a man who
was shot. When the doctor told him he had no horse, the man said he had an
extra horse with him and they both rode into the mountains where they were challenged
by the sentry of the horse thief gang. After the doctor had taken care of the
horse thief, he spied his own horse in the band. The men were awed by his
skill and agreed to give him his horse. He rode out of camp but later said he
was nervous with his back turned to the rowdy crowd. They told him if he
mentioned the visit he would be killed. Needless to say, he kept his mouth
shut and shortly moved to Helena to practice medicine... |

Arts patron Holter dies at 89
Helena community leader and patron of the
arts Joan Treacy Holter, 89, died at home Saturday morning, Nov. 13, of natural
causes.
Holter was well known in Helena for her love
of art and learning, as well as her philanthropy and community activism.
Descended from a pioneering Montana family,
Joan was proud of her Montana heritage and that of her husband Norman Jefferis
“Jeff” Holter, co-inventor with Wilford “Bill” Glasscock of the Holter heart
monitor. Jeff died in July 1983.
Joan’s name is frequently linked with the
Holter Museum of Art, named in honor of the Holter family who for generations
supported the Helena arts.
Although she was not a member of the Helena
Arts Council group that established the museum, she quickly became one of the
museum’s main champions and patrons and served on its first board of directors.
Former Holter executive director Liz Gans
credits Joan with making one of the three founding gifts to start the Holter
Museum of Art, along with William P. Sherman and Alberta Bair.
And it was Joan and friend Jean Baucus who
came to the Holter’s rescue in 1989, when the museum needed a new roof.
Joan also funded artist Richard Swanson’s
iconic sculpture, “Red Shift Rocker,” outside the Holter at the corner of Cruse
and Lawrence because she thought the museum needed a strong statement there.
“She did anything to help, including hosting
events and staff retreats. She not only gave money, she gave of herself,” Ganz
said. “She was really sweet and generous in her enthusiasm for the Holter. My
main memory is just her pure delight in the museum.”
Dick Duffy, who was one of the moving forces
behind starting the Holter Museum of Art, was the one who approached Joan about
using the Holter name.
“We knew the Holter family was very
supportive of the arts in the Helena community. We were looking for a good
name,” Duffy said. “She was very cordial and friendly. She generously said she
was happy about it, and that she would fully support it. She attended most of
the functions the Holter had and the opening.
“What I know of Joan is that she was very
friendly, very personable and a great lady. She was outspoken and told people
that they should support the Holter Museum of Art.”
When the museum opened in December 1987, she
was there to cut the ribbon.
“She was there often in support of the
museum,” Duffy said. “She often had events at her home, where she would
entertain artists at her home and board members. She was very, very supportive
of the museum.”
Artist Robert F. Morgan remembers both Joan
and Jeff as staunch supporters of the Montana Historical Society, where Joan
volunteered as a docent.
“She was always enthusiastic about history
and art,” he said. “She was the kind of person who could take something on and
make it a success. Whatever she took on was done right. She was just a good
citizen. She was so well meaning. She was an exceptional individual; I just
thought the world of her.”
Joan was also a longtime friend and major
donor to the Archie Bray Foundation.
“It’s really sad, there’s no other way to say
it,” said Archie Bray Foundation Executive Director Steven Young Lee, upon
hearing of Joan’s death. “What a terrible loss for the city. Even in recent
years (when her health was declining) she always made a point of coming to our
openings.
He fondly recalled Christmas parties she
would throw. “She always had this really incredible social grace about her. I
was always so impressed by that. She was someone who knew how to treat people
well. She had such respect for others.”
Joan’s generosity reached beyond the visual
arts. She was a consistent donor to Grandstreet Theatre, too, said director
Grandstreet director Tom Cordingley.
“She was very much involved in Second Story
Cinema, and then in helping the Myrna Loy Center,” said Ed Noonan, executive
director of the Myrna Loy. “She was on the committee to raise funds. She’s been
a longtime donor. She’s been an angel to us too. She was generous in both time
and money.”
“She definitely was a symphony supporter,”
said Peter Bogy, president of the Helena Symphony. “Joan Holter’s support to
all the arts has been outstanding. Being a donor and a subscriber to the
symphony is how we survive and she has done exactly that — for many, many
years.”
Joan’s passion for community service and
education was inherited from both sides of her family, according to a 2000
tribute in her honor written by Rick Newby.
A native of Helena, Joan was born to Gertrude
Johnson Treacy and Dr. John Lear Treacy July 24, 1921. Her paternal
grandfather, William Treacy, also was a physician.
Coincidentally, it was Joan’s father who was
the attending physician at the birth of Jeff Holter, her future husband.
Her maternal grandmother, Anna Ford Johnson,
grew up on a ranch near Great Falls but attended boarding school in St. Paul,
Minn. Her grandfather, Alexander C. Johnson, worked for T.C. Power. He became a
key figure in Power’s American National Bank, founded Montana Life Insurance
Co. and was treasurer to the Helena Board of Trade. He helped select the site
for the School of Mines in Butte and along with Norman B. Holter was on the
Invitations Committee for celebrating the laying of the cornerstone for
Montana’s new Capitol in Helena.
Her father died young, said Joan’s son Anton
“A.J.” Holter of Seattle. He was a doctor in World War I in Europe, and when he
came home he had changed considerably.
“I think she had some tough times as a
child,” Anton said. She had a sister, Elisabeth, to whom she was very close and
who preceded her in death.
Joan attended Elmira College in Elmira, N.Y.,
graduating Phi Beta Kappa in April 1942. She was among the first women chemists
to be hired at Shell Oil and worked in Houston.
“She was proud of that accomplishment,” Anton
said, “because there were few women chemists at that time.”
She worked as a chemist in San Francisco and
New York, before marrying Jeff. She then quit her career to raise their
children — Troy, John, Anton and Marian.
“I never heard someone (else) talk about how
much they valued education,” said her granddaughter Adriane Holter of Los
Angeles. “She was so proud of being Phi Beta Kappa. She believed 100 percent in
schooling. She was an incredibly avid learner and it didn’t have an age limit.”
Over the years, she gifted more than $100,000
to Carroll College, according to Carroll spokeswoman Ashley Oliverio. She also
established the Norman J. Holter Memorial Endowment, valued at $27,500. And she
served on the Carroll Board of Trustees from 1983-87.
Both Joan and Jeff were voracious readers,
too. Floor-to-ceiling shelves of her home attest to their eclectic interests —
Montana history and “The Last Best Place” rub covers with “The Constitution of
the People’s Republic of China,” as well as books on modern art, oceanography
and the “Legacy of Hiroshima.”
Art is abundant as well. Michael Haykin
landscape paintings adorn the dining room and living room, along with ceramic
works. Abstract paintings and a portrait by Harley Brown are in the study.
“Dynamite art” —metal sculptures Jeff created with explosives and then had
chrome plated — glow and sparkle from the kitchen wall and the study.
While some would have been content to sit and
enjoy art at home, Joan poured her passion and energy into the community she
loved.
Her longtime friend Karma Alfredson would
frequently attend arts events with Joan, and they worked on Holter fundraisers
side by side.
“She’s gotten around until the very end,”
said Alfredson, most recently attending an event at the Archie Bray Foundation.
They were also together on Halloween night,
handing out candy to neighborhood children.
She remembers Joan as a physically active
person, who swam every morning until recent years.
She loved to hike, cross country ski, play tennis and golf and travel, said Anton.
And she was also a dog lover, her most recent
— a Scottie named Toto.
“Joan was very social,” said Jean Baucus, who
was Joan’s lifelong friend. She fondly recalled a trip they took together to
Mexico City and also an antiquities trip to Spain, Greece and Egypt to learn
about ancient Greek history. “She did a lot of reading, and she loved Helena history
and the Montana Club.”
Although Joan and Jeff and their four
children would live part of their lives in La Jolla, Calif., while Jeff taught
at the University of California at San Diego, Joan chose to return to Helena
during the past decade to live the remainder of her life.
“I would just emphasize how much she did love
this place and she was very proud of the legacy here,” said Adriane, referring
to both Joan’s and Jeff’s families. “She really loved this place; I really want
people to know that.”
“She definitely loved Montana,” said Anton,
“and she definitely loved life. She left the world a better place than she
found it.”

Mrs. R. H, TREACY passes away in the Mill
City
Death Comes to, Prominent Bismarck Woman
After Brief Illness
Bismarck was shocked today by news of the
death at Minneapolis this morning of Mrs. R. H. Treacy. The sad tidings came in
a message from R. H. Treacy, Jr., to George M. Register. executor of the Treacy
estate. Mr. Treacy advised that his mother had passed away this morning and
that I the remains would be brought to Bismarck on Monday. Funeral arrangements
will be made after the arrival of the family.
Mrs. Treacy was a resident of Bismarck more
than a Quarter of a century and was one of tne best known I women in the
capital city, she was born in Pennsylvania about 48 years ago, her maiden name
being Jessie Patterson. As a young woman she came to Steele to teach in the
public schools of that village, and there she met and wed the late Dr. R. H.
Treacy, who was for many years chief of the United States department of animal
Husbandry for North Dakota and Montana. Dr. Treacy died in Chicago on December
9, 1917, while attending the international live stock exposition there, and his
body was brought back to this city for interment. Following the death of Dr
Treacy. Mrs. Treacy continued to make Bismarck her home until about a month
ago, when she went to Minneapolis, to be with her daughter, Miss Dorothy
Treacy, a student at the University of Minnesota, and to be nearer her younger
son, Kenneth Treacy, who is attending Shattuck university. Mrs. Treacy's.
mother and a brother also are residents of Minneapolis. Mrs. Treacy was not
in-good health when, she left Bismarck, but her condition was not considered
serious, and none of her friends were prepared for the sad news which came this
morning. Robert H. Treacy, the eldest of the three children, has been engaged
in newspaper work at Shenandoah, la. He and Miss Dorothy and Master Kenneth
were with their mother when the end came, and they will accompany the remains
to Bismarck on Monday. In addition to her three children, her mother and a

to his brilliant record in athletics. At the recent all state meet, he won
first in both the discus throw and the shot put. He hurled the discus 106
feet one inch, and threw the shot 37 feet. Treacy is a student of Highland
Park college, and is considered one of the best athletes in Iowa along these
lines. August 08, 1916 Bismarck daily tribune Serious Accident Narrowly Averted - Deadly Banana Viper Killed at
Gamble-Robinson's by Robert Treacy. What might have resulted in a fatality was narrowly averted at the
Gamble-Robinson fruit house on Main street Saturday by the presence of mind
and quick actions of Robert Treacy, son of Dr. and Mrs. R. Treacy of this
city. Employees of the Gamble-Robinson concern were unloading a car of
bananas. Mr. Treacy and a fellow workman were in the basement hanging the
bunches of luscious fruit as they were dropped from above. As one crate of bananas came down a deadly banana viper dropped to the
shoulders of the workman assisting Mr. Treacy. The latter, with a sweeping
blow, knocked the reptile to the floor and securing a heavy stick killed it. The appearance of a banana viper in this vicinity is an uncommon
occurrence, although frequently, the tarantula or banana bug is found
attached to the fruit. The viper killed by Mr. Treacy was 36 inches long and
a rare specimen. A person bitten by this reptile is said to live but a short
time, so Mr. Treacy is considerable of a hero in the eyes of his fellow
mates. November 29, 1916 The Bismarck tribune. (Bismarck, N.D.) Returns From Western Trip. Robert Hamilton Treacy, Jr., son of Dr. and Mrs. R. H. Treacy .of

Miss Coila Mayland, formerly a roommate of Miss Treacy when she was a student at the University of Minnesota, served as maid of honor, Robert Webb of this city, attended Mr. Register.

C. A. (2) ; Rifle Marksman, Pistol Marksman. Here we have a true, and indeed a worthy son of the West. Coming to the
Point from a tin school in Minnesota, the military life was nothing- new to
him, and consequently he experienced little difficulty during plebe summer.
He has spent less time on his books than any other man in the class, and yet
he ranks with the best. His entire study time is from the return of the Corps
from breakfast until eight o'clock. Because of his academic efficiency and
military ability he has been made consistently, and in his First Class year
we see him driving a platoon in "E" Company. Ken has studied the theory of radio, and has spent innumerable hours
learning the practical side. Lately the T. D. has broken into his plans by
ordering his many sets locked in the trunk rooms. His knowledge and
experience in radio work will certainly be of value to his chosen branch, the
Signal Corps. Aside from his radio, the rest of his time is spent in holy
communion with his Red Book and red comforter. 1930 Census - Highlands, Orange, New York, United States Kenneth Treacy Head M 27

19 Oct 1904 Fergus County Argus (Lewistown
Montana)
Prominent Lewistown Physician Passes Away in
Helena, Montana
Dr. Frederick Treacy died at 11 o'clock
Friday morning in St. John's hospital, Helena. He had been ill for two months
and had been steadily growing weaker. He went to the hospital about a month ago
and was under the care his brother, Dr. William Treacy of Helena, who did
everything in his power to save him but was unsuccessful. The cause of his
death was tuberculosis of the kind commonly known as quick consumption.
He left Lewistown in June and stopped for a
few days in Helena and Butte before going east. On July 6, he was united in
marriage to Miss Ella Judith Frissell at Cape Girardeau, Missouri and Mr. and
Mrs. Treacy arrived in Lewistown early in August. He was not well when he
reached here and his friends all noticed some great change had taken place. When
he left here for the east he was a picture of health, but when he returned he
looked like a very sick man. Dr. Treacy stayed her for a few weeks and then
left for Hunter's Hot Springs, where he expected to stay for a month to regain
his health. He got worse and finally went to Helena where he put himself under
his brother's care.
Death came very
peacefully last Friday morning, there being present at the time, Mrs. Treacy,
Dr. William Treacy and Capt. Frissell, a brother of Mrs. Treacy. The burial
will be in the family lot in Aurora, Illinois, where the doctor's parents are
laid.
Dr. Frederick Treacy was a native of
Illinois, being raised in Aurora. He attended schools of that city and then
went to College of Physicians and Surgeons, a department of the University of
Illinois in Chicago. He was graduated from that institution in spring of 1901
and came west immediately. On the recommendation of his brother, Dr. William
Treacy of Helena, he came to Lewistown where he began to practice. Dr. Treacy
was one of the town's best citizens and as a physician had few if any
superiors. He was wonderfully successful in his work here and had built up a
large practice. He was a young man, only 31 years of age and had the brightest
prospects for a most successful career in his chosen profession.
Dr. Treacy was a genial man and made friends
wherever he went. He was a member of various lodges in Lewistown and held a
high office in the local lodge of Elks. As a man he was above reproach and
Lewistown has suffered a distinct loss in his death. There survive him his
wife, his brother, Dr. William Treacy of Helena, a brother in Bismark, North
Dakota, and a sister in Aurora.
