Early history of Seattle

Seattle was inhabited since the end of the last glacial period 8,0000 B.C - 10,000 years ago. Seattle was actually founded by Denny Party in 1851 and around the same time David Swinson "Doc" Maynard began settling the land immediately south of Denny's. Then Hernry Yesler brought the first steam sawmill to the region, he chose a location on the waterfront where Maynard and Denny's plats met. Seattle was incorporated as a town the 14Th of January 1865. And by that time the population was approximately 350 and 1,000 people. Amd that was the begging of Seattle and I will talk about what Seattle pass threw and how seattle is doing right now. There's still terrible traffic on the freeways, air is poluted. The city, or its setting, is still physically beautiful. Who wouldn't like to live in Seattle?
