Annie
McRedmond recalled "I remember so well my mother telling about the trip
to their new home. Father loaded the family, all the household belongings and
the cow into a scow. They went up the Duwamish River, into Black River, then
across Lake Washington and up the Sammamish River. Father was always a friendly
man with the Indians, and when one of them died, they came in great groups and
sat in our yard and mourned. When I was a child, the Indians came to our place
all the time. They would sit around and watch us until my mother gave them
something to eat. I was never afraid of them." David Barry McREDMOND, died 1/28/1905 age 34 "of consumption." Priest officiating services was Father Metz or Melz. Bonnie Watson funeral home. http://www.acc-seattle.com FIRST Cemetery CC = Calvary Cemetery
