The William F. Henneberry Homestead, in Beaverhead County, Montana near Dillon, Montana, was built in 1905. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2019.[1]

It's on what is known as Ney Ranch.[2]

The listing includes four contributing buildings and nine contributing sites.[2]

It is located on what is now Bureau of Land Management (BLM) property. It includes an 1883 cabin, the 1905 house, a chicken coop, and remnants of several structures, as well as "farm machinery and trash dumps." The 1905 house has been adapted to serve as a rental by the BLM, and non-contributing features have been added.[2]

The Lewis and Clark Expedition passed through the property in 1805.[2]

It is located on the west side of the Beaverhead River, about 2,000 feet (610 m) south of the Dalys, Montana exit off Interstate 15.[2]
