Everett Daily Herald 5-29-1907 TOLEDO, Wash., May 29- No advies have been received from the relatives of William F. Gehrke, who was shot and instantly killed here Sunday night by F.H. O'Connor. He will probably be buried here. Gehrke had been a resident of this city for about eighteen years and was very eccentric. He had a meddlesome disposition which took the form of inflicting wounds upon cattle and studiously contriving to annoy his neighbors. He was frequently before the village authorities and promised always when shown leniency to do better. His good behavior was usually of short duration however. Between O'Connor and Gehrike there has been bad feeling for some time. The men were neighbors, the two houses being seperated by a small creek. Gehrke would dam up this creek and it would overflow.

Early Saturday morning, Andrew Braaten, and his fiancee, Miss Clara Gillespie, left the home of the latter, at Monroe, to come to Snohomish and Everett, it being Miss Gillespie's object to purchase her wedding trousseau, for the happy event which was to come off sometime in June. Mr. Braaten drove a horse belonging to Miss Gillespie's father, to an open buggy. The stopped in Snohomish, did some trading, and about eleven o'clock started for Everett to complete their purchases, as happy a couple as ever started out on "the royal path". When they reached the ranch of Mr. Scott, about three miles from here, at which place a watering trough is built for the accommodation of the public, Mr. Braaten got out of the buggy to refresh the horse with water. The animal had some difficulty in drinking with the bits in his mouth, and upon suggestion of Miss Gillespie, he took the bits out and let him drink. While trying to replace the bridle, something scared the horse, which jumped and started to run, dragging Mr. Braaten under his feet and at the same time throwing Miss Gillispie out on the plank road. When Andrew recovered from the force of his fall, and was able to rise, he found Miss Gillespie not twenty feet away lying insensible on the road. Help soon came and she was carried into the nearest house, and Dr. McCready summoned. Everything was done that human skill could do to save her life, but to no avail, and about four o'clock she passed away, the fall causing concussion of the brain.

Everett Daily Herald 7-14-1911 IN MEMORIAM OF GEORGE GREENWOOD The death of this venerable pioneer is of more than passing interest to the people of this county, as well as of Seattle. He was born in Glasgow, Scotland, in 1821. He died at his residence, in this town, on July 8, 1911, and he was buried beside his son and daughter and grand children in Woodlawn cemetery, near this city, on July 11, 1811. There are none here possessing a more remarkable personal record, His father, one hundred years ago, was Chief Engineer of the Clyde River Improvement Co, and made the modern city of Glasgow possible. Years ago his oldest brother was President of the Board of Metropolitan Engineers of the City of London, England. The subject of this article should have filled equally prominent positions, but at ten years of age he ran away and went to sea. Before he was fifteen, he had been in Hudson's Bay, the Mediterranean, all over the Atlantic, Pacific and Indian oceans, and had had enough of adventures for a lifetime. Seventy nine years ago, he ran for his life, when an eleven year old boy, into the walled city of Manila, to escape some Philipino Malays running amuck, and trying to kill him. While still a boy he made several trips on a "slaver" between the west coast of Africa and Brazil. Over sixty years ago he was in several Filibuster Expeditions from New Orleans in behalf of "Cuba Libra" in the forties, for years , he was Marine Engineer on Mississippi river steamboats. In 1849 he helped build the Panama Railroad, under Col. Baker. As Capt. Of Mutineers he took a deep water ship into a Peruvian port. For years he "dove for treasure" on the west coast of South America. After all these and other adventures, "old George Greenwood" came to Puget Sound so long ago as to be one of our earliest settlers. In 1852 he put the fire under the first steam saw mill, (the Yesler mill) on Puget Sound. He was also Engineer of the first primitive steamboat which made regular trips from Seattle to Snohomish. Then, nearly fifty years ago, "old George Greenwood" took up land and settled near this city, married, and is numbered among our earliest settlers. He leaves one daughter, Mrs. Charles Sinclair, a widow, and lots of grandchildren, and even great grandchildren to remember him. A well beloved son and daughter and many grandchildren have gone before. He knew all about the steam engine, and its history for the past hundred years. He was a natural philosopher, a man of wonderful knowledge and most varied experiences. Perhaps the most remarkable man who has ever made his home in this community. He will be greatly missed by all the old settlers of King and Snohomish counties, Washington. Everett Daily Herald 1968 Carl H. Gregory, 71, of Marysville, died Sept. 21 in an Arlington hospital.

Tribune 7-15-1898 After more than two years of patient suffering, Mrs. Persis E. Gunn passed away at her home at Index, Monday, July 11. Mrs. Gunn was 53 years of age, and came to this state about seven years ago from ILL. Since then the home at Index has become a favorite resort for the many friends from Snohomish and vicinity. It is now more than two years since the first premonition of her fatal malady began to be felt. Relief was sought at the hands of specialists in Chicago and Seattle, and she returned to her home to pass the remainder of her days with her family. These last few months were full of suffering, scarcely a moment of them all being free from pain, but she bore it without a murmur or complaint. During the last few weeks she seemed to be improving, and rallied so much as to be able to leave her bed to which she had been confined for a year, and on Fourth of July she ate dinner with her family. The improvement proved to be soly temporary, for on Wednesday last she grew much worse and sank rapidly until Monday afternoon when she passed away. On Tuesday, as the evening shadows were lenghtening, she was laid to rest in a peaceful spot, only a few rods from the room in which she had lain so long, and in the midst of the beautiful surroundings which had been so dear to her. She leaves a husband, five daughters and one son to mourn her loss. Among the many examples of noble womanhood which have adorned our frontier life, none was held in higher esteem then Mrs. Gunn. Her gentle and refined manners, her generous and refined temperament made her not only a fond parent in her own household, but won for her everywhere the beautiful name "Mother," and made her house not only a stopping place for the wayfarer, but in reality a home.
