Another article that Prof. Edmund Meany wrote in his accounting of Pioneers of Seattle and King County was that of Mrs. Henrietta A. Carr, May 21, 1919 In this article which names James S. and Anna (Michels) Clark - this is a misnomer in that the name correction should read Jason S. and Anna (Michels [Michaels] Clark. I added the Michaels spelling for that is the one they used after they arrived in America - The Michael's Fam.- Palatinates-CC). When Jason and Anna (my Grt Grt grandparents arrived by ox team IN>OR 1847, Henrietta A. CLARK was b. in DouglasCo., OR b. 1860 - her older bro. James William Clark, who went by "William" was but 5 yrs old at that time, my Grt GF-to-be- CC.) The family estab. a homestead in what is now the town of Kent, known as the Clark Addition to Kent, just S of Seattle. Miss Clark eventually became the bride of Clarence REID of Portland, OR 1876. Some yrs later, Clarence Reid d. and left 2 children, that became Mrs. Mildred Reid HENDRICKSON, and Will H. REID of Seattle in those times. By 1887, Mrs. REID m. Ulrich A. CARR, son of Edmiund CARR, one of the 1st regents of the territorial Univ. of WA. They had 3 children, but only one survived - Mrs. Ruth Carr GARRISON, Seattle. There is a Story that goes with this - one in which there was dealing of a trade of flour for baskets with local Indians (Nat. Amer) and how frontier life was testing at times. I won't expound on this story as it might be offensive to some persons reading it so I will leave that episode out. Life was a bit on edge at times among the pioneers and their dealings. Mrs. Carr became a member of the Pioneer Association of the State of Washington. She lived at 6330 Fortieth Ave.S.W., in Seattle in her later years. I posted these two articles in the hope that someone Out There might relate or even tie to this sort of information and we can become acquainted - we would have much to share, I am sure.CC. I know that Cousin Margaret Summitt can readily relate to this for she has MICHAEL blood cursing thru her veins. She earned her Dr. degree in English Lit from CA, and I was never great at Literature, tho' I envy those who are. I will get to visit with her again, when the Sno-Isle Gen. Soc. re-convenes in Sept. coming up. Marge Reid keeps me appeased and on my toes. I tried to establish a REID tie in with her, recently, but it didn't "take" so we ain't Cousins, yet ! Adage: Snohomish Library is a COOL place to visit - its genealogy section is growing, too ! Carroll in Snohomish, WA * * * 30 * * *
