| Contextual Notes | Born in Troy Grove, Illinois, on November 30, 1843 Clarence Bagley traveled at the age of 9 with his family to Oregon, then later to Seattle. He married Alice Mercer in 1865, and soon after was appointed a clerk's position in the Surveyor General's office, Olympia. While in Olympia he became interested in printing, publishing, and writing and bought the newspapers, The Territorial Republic and The Echo. He accepted the position of Territorial Printer which held for 10 years. His love of writing and local history led him to write History of Seattle, Washington and History of King County, Washington. He and his wife are buried in Seattle's Mt. Pleasant Cemetery. |
