Mary Fields, Stagecoach Mary got her name at the turn of the 20th century.

She earned this nickname by working for "Wells Fargo" delivering the United States Mail through adverse conditions that would have discouraged the most hardened frontiersmen of that period. All by herself, she never missed a day for 8 years, carrying the U. S. Mail and other important documents that helped settle the wild open territory of central west Montana. She didn't drive a stagecoach as most stories have told. By not missing her schedule mail route as a stagecoach keeps its schedule, she earned the nickname, "Stagecoach Mary". She smoked cigars, drank whiskey with men in saloons, and if in a fight, she would knock out her opponent with one punch.

However, despite the hardness of Stagecoach Mary, she had another side of her, a kindness so strong, even today, in the beginning of the 21st Century, the town of Cascade, Montana, and other surrounding communities celebrate her birthday.

As stated above; one of her correct nicknames is, Stagecoach Mary
