Robert was most likely named after a cousin Robert Hanley whom was ill and died in Hurley, WI in Sept of 1893. Robert Hanley (find a grave memorial #179944574) was the son of James Hanley (brother of Hannah) and Bridget Doyle. Robert's father was John D Brennan, whom was born in either 1858 or 1859 in Pennsylvania (most likely Tioga County). John's parents were most likely James Brennan and Catherine McNearny, whom were both said to be born in Dublin County, Ireland. Robert's father John moved his family to Butte in the mid to late 1890s where he worked as a miner. John died in Butte in 1913. Robert's mother was Hannah (Hanley) Brennan, whom was born in 1866 in County Cork, Ireland. Hannah's father appears to be John Hanley, most likely also from County Cork Ireland. Hannah died in Butte in 1914. John and Hannah had 3 sons: Robert was the oldest born in 1893, Neal was born in 1895 and William was born in 1899. The family lived at 218 Talbot Ave and at 213 Garden Ave in Butte. Robert's brother, Neal, died while he was attempting to rescue miners during the Pennsylvania Mine Fire in Butte on Feb 14, 1916. 21 died in that mining accident. The Pennyslvania mine does not exist today, it was located in what is now Butte's Berkeley Pit. The Berkeley Pit was an open pit copper mine which operated from 1955 to 1982. Robert's other brother, William (Gooze) worked as a laborer for the Great Northern Railroad in Butte. William had a wife (Goldie) and adopted son (William "Billie" Hastie). They lived for many years at 2900 Cobban Street in Butte. Bill died two months before his older brother, Robert on March 3, 1976. His wife, Goldie died in 1992. Robert Brennan married Augustine (Coello) Brennan on Nov 15, 1916. Her father Batista Coello also worked in the mines of Butte, MT. They moved to Great Falls MT in 1923. Bobby (as he was called by his friends) worked for the Great Northern railroad for 53 years. He had worked himself up to the position of railroad engineer. Robert (Bobby) and Augustine (Gus) had only one child, a daughter Ruth (Brennan)(Meyers) Wolff born in 1917. In 1958 when Robert was 65 and Augustine was 60, they would go on to raise their great grandson Bob Meyers Jr. Robert Brennan was an avid fly fisherman. He enjoyed working in his yard and sharing his favorite stories while drinking coffee. He was quite proud of his turquoise 1957 Chevy. He was a member of Our Lady of Lourdes parish, the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers and the Holy Name Society. Robert died on May 1, 1976. The funeral services were held at Our Lady of Lourdes Church on May 4. He is buried at the Hillcrest Lawn Memorial Mausoleum in Great Falls, MT.
