Welcome to Seattle!

     

Welcome to the Emerald City!  

     Seattle is rich not only in rainy days but also in history!  I began my knowledge of Seattle history while researching my husband's family tree.  His great grandfather had an entrepreneurial spirit as a young man and travelled from New York to the Washington Territory in the mid 1880's.  On my search to find out more about him I discovered a treasure trove of information; from archives and libraries to newspapers and local lineage societies.  I hope you can take this journey with me as I review and discuss genealogical finds from all around the Puget Sound area!
