. . There are nine principal tribal groups living on seven reservations in
Montana. Three of the reservations are inhabited by more than one tribal
group. The Confederated Salish, Pend d'Oreille and Kootenai share the
Flathead Reservation . . .
Information is taken from the booklet, "The Tribal Nations Of Montana - A
Handbook for Legislators, published in 1995. The booklet was prepared by The
Committee on Indian Affairs and published by the Montana Legislative Council
Helena, MT

I also think that the Kalispell tribe were included on this reservation.

Separate Indian census were only done in the years 1885-1940
The Flathead ones:
