Herman Schnitzmeyer (1879-1939)
Schnitzmeyer is noted for making a homestead claim on Wild Horse Island around 1910. He came to the Flathead Valley primarily as a homesteader and secondly as a photographer in Illinois, where he was born in 1879. His artistic photographs captured the majesty of the scenery around Flathead Lake and the Mission Mountain Range. Schnitzmeyer eventually sold his Wild Horse Island claim and moved to Polson where he later opened a studio but his doors were often locked due to the freelance work assignments he did for the Northern Pacific Railroad, which allowed him to travel the northwest.
