O’SHEA, D. G., Red Lodge, Montana, born near Bantry, Ireland, February
6, 1862, of native parents. Attended the rudimentary schools of the
locality until 13 years of age; then employed for six years in a small
mercantile establishment in the town of Bantry. Hon. T. M. Healy was
at that time a clerk in this store, and one of Mr. O’Shea’s
instructors at the Bantry school was Hon. Timothy Harrington, later a
prominent member of the Irish Parliamentary party, and also Lord Mayor
of Dublin. Bantry being a town where the revolutionary spirit was much
in evidence, there was a secret society there of which Mr. O’Shea
became a member while still a boy; he also participated actively in
the doings of the Land League. He came to America in March, 1881, and
after several months of searching about for a suitable opening,
settled in Montana, where he has since resided. The state was then
very sparsely settled, and there were no railroads. Mr. O’Shea spent
some time in prospecting and working in mines, etc., and in 1887 went
to Red Lodge with the pioneers of that locality. He entered the employ
of the Rocky Fork Coal Company, remaining with that concern for 15
years until it was absorbed by the Northern Pacific Railway. He then
engaged in banking and real estate, and has since been connected with
affairs of that nature. He was married in 1901 to Miss Eleanor
Cavenagh, a native of Dublin, and at that time living in Chicago.
There are three children, two boys and a girl.
