Lester was closed down in 1929 when Tacoma found that Lester was in Tacoma's watershed. So far, I cannot fnd him in any 1920 census. I am 93 and have been hunting him for years (he was my mother's brother). As you can imagine, I am very eager to find him. Many thanks for any clues. Alice

I have spent countless years, many of them on the internet trying to find any information about her. She left my dad and me the day before my 2nd birthday and I am now 55 years old. That was in Alaska and with her birthplace being New York I was not having any luck. I had an idea she was buried at Portland, Oregon or Vancouver, Washington and finally tonight thanks to your sharing the links I have found her. With deep and heartfelt thanks, I wish you the blessings special people like you deserve. Mary

My uncle, Homer Mitchell Davis and his family are listed in the 1910 U S Census in Lester Precinct as working for a railroad. There are many other railroad workers listed there also. Will someone please give me a historical reference for that period in King County history? Are there any ROOTSWEB sites for the development of that railroad? I remember a little about the argument between Tacoma and Seattle concerning the terminal but that is about all. I have been hunting Uncle Homer for a long time and certainly need more information. I wish I had known this when I lived in Tacoma. Thanks for just reading this and double thanks for any help you can and will give. Alice G.Hart Woodby
This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Classification: Obituary Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/pBC.2ACE/3992 Message Board Post: Seattle Times, Monday, March 20, 1950 Mrs. Katherine L. Perkins, Early-Day Nome Doctor, Dies Mrs. Katherine L. Perkins, 92 years old, a University of Michigan medical graduate who delivered one of the first white babies born in Nome at the turn of the century, died in a rest home here after a long illness. Mrs. Perkins was the widow of Colonel William T. Perkins, former University of Washington regent and Alaska and Northwest business leader. He died in 1947, a week after he and his wife celebrated their 63rd wedding anniversary. Born in Denison, Iowa, Mrs. Perkins and her husband were married after they were both graduated from the University of Michigan in 1884. He was a law graduate. The Perkinses practiced their respective professions in Bismarck, North Dakota before Colonel Perkins, a colonel in the North Dakota National Guard, went to the Klondike in the gold rush of 1898. Mrs. Perkins waited in Seattle while the colonel prospected unsuccessfully for gold. In 1900, they went together to pioneer in Nome. The Perkinses operated a general store in that Alaskan village, and Mrs. Perkins put her medical training to use whenever it was needed. They returned to Seattle in 1908 to make their home. They later traveled to Siberia and South America to develop trade, mining and timber ventures. Colonel Perkins also organized banks at Roy, Pierce County; Oakville, Grays Harbor County; West Seattle and Kirkland. Mrs. Perkins, who had abandoned her medical career when she came to Seattle, was a member and past president of Chapter A. P. E. O. Sisterhood. She was a member of the Woman’s Century Club. Funeral services will be held at 4 o’clock tomorrow in the Butterworth Chapel. A nephew, C. F. Kuehnle, Winnetka, Illinois, arrived in Seattle less than an hour after Mrs. Perkins’ death.
