Hello, According to www.snoco.org (the Snohomish County web site) the plat of "Galena City" was filed by John N Scott on November 16, 1891. It was in Twp 28 N, Range 11 East. If you would like a photo of the plat from the 1910 Anderson Plat book I can send it. Just email me at lacquer@comcast.net The legal description was: "The Sunday Star Quartz Mine and mill site, the Homesake Quartz Mine and mill site and the Silver Creek Placer Claim No. 1. Containing 69 64/100 acres in Snohomish County. Mr. Scott "reserved all minerals beneath the surface of said streets and alleys and the right to mine, take and remove all minerals therefrom." Thanks, Tracy in Edmonds, WA -----Original Message----- From: wasnohom-bounces@rootsweb.com [mailto:wasnohom-bounces@rootsweb.com] On Behalf Of gc-gateway@rootsweb.com Sent: Wednesday, March 25, 2009 9:57 AM To: WASNOHOM-L@rootsweb.com Subject: Re: [WASNOHOM] Galena, Washington Information This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list.
