Hi all!
I just found this site and am hoping someone can help me find an old friend. My name is Jamie and I am from California. Several years back, in 2000, I met this guy who was a "wandering Indian" from Montana, who went by the nickname "Montana". We became very close friends although he was only in my life for a very short time. He ended up moving to Oregon/Washington on his way to getting back to his home on the reservation in Montana. I know very little about him, but here is what I've got. His name is Mark Rutherford (I believe is the last name). He had wrote me a few letters with mailing addresses in Philomath, Oregon and Seattle, Washington. I also have a phone number for his father (which is no longer good). His father's (I believe-is deceased) name was Jesse Rutherford, who apparently lived on the reservation in Browning. I know Mark has a son. I am now living in Oregon and was going through some old things from storage and found the letters. He has never left my thoughts as he was a very, very special person! From the first moment I turned around and our eyes locked, it was like we had already known eachother. Anyway, I am now living here, and am that much closer to where he was living. My next step is to drive up to Browning and start knocking on doors LOLOLOL. Well, I know this is a really loooonnngg shot, but thought I'd try anyway. I would appreciate ANY information anyone might have!!!!! Please email me at
