Father of Maud Adams Linked to Early Montana Wildcat
James Kiskadden, father of actress Maud Adams, formed the Missouri River Portage Co in 1864 with 500000 capital to build a wagon road and later a railroad around Great Falls. The plan hinged on Missouri River navigation to Three Forks, with Kiskadden later marrying Mrs Slade and living in Salt Lake City before Maud Adams was born.
