In 1872, he built a large home on the Walla Walla river near Tum-a-Lum. The two story home was considered a mansion by local 19th century standards, so it is difficult to see why he would have rented in Walla Walla. I am interested in ANY biographical information regarding Thomas K. McCoy, as I am the current deed holder of his Umatilla county homestead property.
