Biographical History

The Montgomery family arrived in what is now called Enumclaw, WA on March 9, 1885. William Montgomery's brother had been in British Columbia when he bought out a man's equity in 160 acres of railroad land in the district near Enumclaw. When he heard his brother was going to buy a farm in Scotland, he advised him to come to Washington Territory, which they did. After a two week ocean journey, they arrived in New York and took the train to Tacoma, WA. After a couple of days, the family was met by William's brother and they walked several miles to his home. This began the family's pioneer life in Washington Territory. Marion, William's eldest daughter, married Ivan Lee on May 6, 1891. Ivan's family was another pioneering family in the area. His family had moved from Minnesota to Tacoma in 1876, where his father had helped build the railroad tracks through Enumclaw and Eagle Gorge. In 1884 the Lee family took up a homestead north of Enumclaw, WA.
