| Studio Name | Seattle Post-Intelligencer |
| Studio Location | United States--Washington (State)--Seattle |
| Date | 1939 |
| Notes | The traditional home of the Snoqualmie people lay in the Snoqualmie River Valley of western Washington state, between the areas now occupied by the towns of North Bend and Monroe. Along with the Snohomish and Skykomish, the Snoqualmie lost their lands in the 1855 Treaty of Point Elliott. Some tribal members who were forced out ot the area moved to the Tulalip Indian Reservation near Marysville. Others tried to remain in spite of increasing white settlement. In 1997, the non-reservation Snoqualmie finally gained recognition from the United States government. In this 1939 photo, an elderly Snoqualmie couple, Mr. and Mrs. George Adams, stand outside their home. The photo was probably taken on the Tulalip Reservation. |
