She finds both and proceeds to take turn-of-the-century Denver by storm and become one of the more unlikely heroines of her time.

Molly Brown is rescued from the Colorado River as an infant and raised by Seamus Tobin. She and miner Johnny Brown wed, and he sells his claim in a silver mine for $300,000. Soon after the money Molly hid in the stove is accidentally burnt, Johnny discovers the richest gold vein in state history. Molly sets out to improve her social status by trying to ingratiate herself with the city's elite, all of whom snub her and her nouveau riche ways.
