1843-1845 HIST: McAllister Manuscript, U of WA Library, NW Collection, written by Mrs Sarah McAllister Hartman [daughter of James and Charlotte] 20 Feb 1893, Sherlock WA (Nisqually old town, called Sherlock few years, now called Nisqually again). Story of fam living & Indian war time.
HEADING: "James McAllister arrived at New Market (Tumwater) with M T Simmons & others late Oct 1845."
1843 James McAllister & family left for Missouri to come west following spring (left Missouri 1843, to Missouri before 1834 when md). To Whitman Mission where stayed 8 weeks, when America sick with mountain fever. James had heard of schools on the Sound. Met by Chief Leschi of Nisqually Tribe, bearing gifts. Took them to Bush Prairie where took claims about 12 miles from Ft Nisqually.
Sound Indians were kind to us, but when men absent from camp a roving band of Indians "helped themselves to whatever took their fancy. But unfortunatley for them they began at the wrong camp, that being mother's. She jerked a tent pole and laid it about her with such effect that she had her squat of Indians going on a double quick in a very short time. The others, seeing them going, took to their heels, leaving the camp forever."
13 Mar 1844-5 James B McAllister born on Bush Prairie, first white child born on Puget Sound. Father came by Leschi's invitation to Nisqually Valley & selected his farm at junction of Shnonabdaub & Squaquid Creeks. Destined to see many wild & horrible scenes that other settlers were spared. Planted wheat but no bread for 3 years. Plenty to eat-all kinds of game, fish, clams, dried & fresh-Indians showing us how to prepare them. No salt. Veges-Lackamas, Speacotes & other roots. We learned to like Indian foods.
1845, mother did not like being alone while father building. He laughingly told her he saw two large stumps side by side & if she would live in them, he would take her with him. She did. He scraped out the stump & made a roof, & mother moved in with 6 children-very comfortable, lived there till father built new house on north part of land-stump house abt 300 yards from new one.
We learned the Indian language. Mother, a southern women, used to servants, adopted Indian maidens- train the for housework. 2 boys also, they were faithful during Indian trouble. One gave his life to save family. Gold fever in CA, also on Queen Charlotte Island. Father & others went but wrecked on rocks, Indians more savage than Sound Indians. Were prisoners 3 months untill rescued.
Several stories were told, one included was Indians learning white ways,knocking on doors before entering. They did not think they must do it. One Indian came & found door locked ( & because not knock), he attacked door with war club. Mother not sure what happening, grabbed horse pistol and shot as door fell, hitting Indian in both calves. No Indians appeared-went to their camp & told what she did. They laughed, told her of his brags of getting into house without knocking. She showed them how to make a litter, carried him to camp, dressed his wounds & nursed him till well. They were best of friends after that.
After arriving in they valley, father cleared quite a farm, built a sawmill, blacksmith shop & started a general store. He served 2 terms in terrirorial legislature.
The Indians began to complain about many things that father built, including nice house 2 stories high with 10 rooms on ground floor & comforts & happiness, but poor father not live to enjoy his well-earned comfort..."

1846 HIST: OR Pioneer Assn 1873-86 R979.519 Or3, Spokane WA Lib, pg 92: "In the summer of 1846, Col Michael C Simmons started an exploring expedition to Puget Sound fully examining to the head of the Sound, north of Whidby Island, returned to the Columbia, a party was made up, which started in October for the Sound.
The little Colony consisted of Col Simmon & family, James McAllister & family, David Kindred & family, Gabriel Jones & family, George Bush & family, Jesse Ferguson & Samuel B Crocket. Having ascended Cowlitz River to old Cowlitz Landing, 15 days were occupied in cutting road thru to Tumwater, at head of Budd's Inlet, Puget Sound (abt 58 miles).
The claim of Tumwater or Falls of the Deschutes was taken by Col Simmons, who called the site New Market. The remaining families settled on prairie claims all within a circuit of 6 mile from New Market. To the prairie they gave the name "Bush Prairie" for Bush who occupied the most remote section of land, the outpost of the little colony. On the formation by the provisional government in 1846, of Vancouver district, embracing all the territory subsequently divided & respectively named Clarke, Lewis and Pacific Counties, & extending northward to 54-40 no. latitude, Col Simmons was one of the Co. judges. One of his colleagues was Gov James Douglas, then chief factor of the Hudson's Bay Co at Ft Van, afterward Sir James Douglas, the first governor of British Columbia."

This creek or part of it was once known as Medicine Creek & under that name became famous when Gov Isaac I Stevens held an Indian council on its banks & made the treaty with the Nisqually & other tribes 26 Dec 1854. That treaty gives Indian name of creek as "She-nah-nam." Ezra Meeker says She-nah-nam is the Indian name of McAllister Creek & that Medicine Creek is a tributary having the Indian name "Squa-quid".

1855 HIST: Manuscript continued: "...In 1855 Leschi came to our house, bringing both his wives, saying he was going to fight. Mother & father both tried to persuade him to remain peaceful & thought they had done so. Women talked & cried together. He told father if he not join the army, he should not be hurt or his property destroyed. Shortly after, his family withdrew to the mountains & hostilities began.
White people raised companies of volunteers, built forts for families. Father & my older brother George, who was only 17, joined Company I, Puget Sound Volenteers. Mother begged him not to do so - said Indians would surely kill him. He laughed, said he would take a cane & cane every one of them home. I Think he said that to quiet mother. Army thought he could persuade Leschi not to fight, gave him peace commission, left for stronghold in mountains. Fired on in ambush, father shot twice in chest, killed instantly. Connell killed down the road. Indian boy, Chipwaleon, Charlotte convinced to follow James - horse ran into woods & saved his life. Others were hurt, including brother (took portion of upper lip). Next morning, brother George went for reinforcements, then home, where found family surrounded by Indians. 2 Indian friends held rest at bay until boys got oxen & wagon, taking us to fort over 2 miles away.
Pg 54: Mother was prostrate with grief & fright- searching parties were sent to find bodies of murdered officers. After a long & weary search, they were found. Lt Connell beside trail terribly mutilated; father was hidden carefully away in the forks of a fallen tree, securely covered.
Pg 55: One day quite a stir in fort... across prairie something coming, an uncanny long object lying full length upon a horse... wrapped in canvas... put in a bier. Mother was led to the bier, gentleman fanning her with his hat... ladies told us in the kindest way possible that out father was dead & that his body lay wrapped in that canvas. They led us forward, stood beside mother; grasped the folds of her dress, too frightened to see what was before us, one awful moment & we saw the face of our dearly loved father, cold in death. Then long silence broken... all burst into wildest crying, flood gates broken, grief, fright, despair overwhelmed us.
Pg 8 (typed): After lying 15 days in the woods, father's body was brought home to mother- buried with military & Masonic honors. Mother grieved.
Pg 56: Father buried near the fort by a beautiful lake. Pg 8 continued: More grief - A few days after father's funeral, my sister America left baby asleep in cradle while checked on mother. Stove accidently overturned by cat & dog chasing, pouring boiling water into cradle & scalding baby to death. Remained at this post sev months, then to Ft Ragston on the Nisqually & 2 miles from home. Hard times began. No good meals during year there. John went to farm to get food & trying to shoot duck, shot his hand, crippling for life. Many Indian scares there. Children had to sleep in block house with soldiers below,swearing if we made noise.
Pg 9: Indians captured, tried and one confessed to killing father.
Pg 10: The Indians had many queer customs (tells of marriages & funerals), one that puzzles whites the most is "tonmanomies" - spiritualism. Mt. Tacoma called so by natives. Named Ranier after English admiral. Creek called Shinonadaub by the Indians-afterwards named McAllister's Creek by whites. I have called our farm Chilcoma, meaning raspberry. This story writen under many difficulties-if any old settlers notice mistakes, regard them as the fault of memory, not intentions.

1855 DEATH,BURIAL: WA,Thurston Co-Connells Prairie: James Benton McAllister died from fatal gunshot wounds 27 October 1855; buried near fort by lake

1855 DEATH,HIST: Hist Thurston Co, WT pg 26. James McAllister shot & killed by Indians. Treaty with Nisqually and other tribes:
"1st Council Thurston Co on McAllister Creek-1 mile above mouth on right bank - Indians to cede land in co to US, reservation land - 2 sections near south mouth of McAllister Creek, signed by 62 Indians, including Chief Leschi & bro Qui-ee-muth. Company of Rangers organized, James McAllister 1st Lt, as Military asked him to try to make peace with Lesche. Stockades were built for families & Rangers left 24 Oct 1855 to seek Chief Leschi who caused hostilities among many of the natives. Puyallup Crossing- Capt Eaton, Lt McAllister & Capt Connell, with a friendly Indian went ahead of company to confer with Indians. Indians professed friendship but upon leaving, McAllister & Connell were killed. An Indian rode to McAllister claim & told family of his death, helped them to fort. Cols Moses & Miles were killed. It was for the murder of those men that Leschi was aftward executed. 3 young men were buried at Chambers' Prairie.
Pg 33:Qui-ee-muth captured near Yelm and guarded at Governor's office overnight. Near morning while guard slept, a man burst into room, shooting Indian & then stabbing him. ...the man making attack not identified and no testimony found against anyone... impression gained credence, however, that Joseph Bunting, son in law of McAllister, committed the deed, thus revenging death of McAllister.
Pg 208-9: Mrs D R Bigelow, then Miss White, was first school teacher in Thurston Co, & 1st school conducted in small bedroom in Packwood residence on their claim on Nesqally bottom. The pupils were children of the Packwoods, the Shasers & the McAllisters, which were all within traveling distance to school..."

1855 DEATH/HIST: Obit of son, James Benton McAllister 1 March 1902, Newspaper Abstracts, Morning Olympian, 1891-1906, Thurston Co, WA, R929.37977, pg 112: "...Mr & Mrs James McAllister were prominent members of that little colony who have nearly all passed to the great beyond. The elder McAllister was killed in Indian War 1855. He was first lieutenant of company of Puget Sound Rangers, of which Charles Eaton was captain, and was shot down from ambush at White River while endeavoring to communicate with hostile Indians as peace commissioner from the whites. McAllister volunteered for the perilous duty on account of his ability to converse fluently in the Indian language.
At that time the McAllisters were living on a place which they had taken up near where Sherlock now stands. It might be worth noting that McAllister Creek & the famous McAllister springs with their wonderfully clear waters were named after the elder McAllister.
When the news of the terrible death of Lt McAllister reached the little band of settlers abt Thurston county, together with the info that another Whitman massacre might occur, the families hurried to the forts and with them the man who was buried yesterday...

David's mother died when he was young and he went to live with an older sister Louisa but don't know if she was sister to David or James. David's father and stepmother traveled west to the state of Washington. About 1850 his family was killed by the Indians. David went to Dayton OH, enlisted in the Army, reporting to Jefferson Barricks, Mo. 1851. He received a disability discharge on or about the 15th day of Apr 1865, Ft Goodwin AZ.

I speak their language, know all their tricks, and I want to go to my mother, as I fear there is something wrong with father. He disguised himself as an Indian and lying on his stomach, crawled to where their horses were hidden but he couldn't see one of them.

"The two youngest boys (12 & 15) slipped out back to look for team to try to make our escape; returned, wasn't a hoof to be found. After a hurried consultation, decided to let boys go to prairie (abt 1 mile distant) to look. Knew couldn't keep Indianss at bay much longer. Slipped away quietly. Not know whether we would ever see them alive again... near night boys came back with a letter from Dr Tolmie of Ft Nisqually given by Indian carrier-an invitation to Ft Nisqually...after long night boys sneaked out again Joe (bro-in-law) to hunt for team. They returned early morning with joyful news ...secured and hidden a hoke of wild, half broken oxen not far from house. Indian afraid of dark. Boys talk again to Indians about letting go. Thinking we on foot & easy prey, promised to let us next morning. Boys put things in wagon in night. Next morning, not act afraid, walked through crowd of Indians. Went across Sqauquid Creek toward Ft Nisqually. They not follow as they had several ambushes along road to Ft. They turned to looting our house. Watching, we turned abruptly south, crossed creek again to where wagon hidden. All able to walk scattered, little ones & mother in wagon. Boys had to put ropes on wild oxen so keep on road. Wagon got tangled in vine maples (that clump of maples now stand in my back yard, a highly valued shrub). You may be sure wheels not strike notches in logs very often & all 4 wheels were not on ground at once. Terrible ride, looking for Indians every moment. Many dead cattle & horses on prairie where Indians had killed them. We were seen from fort, gov't wagon came to meet us...thought we had surely been killed and thankful we weren't."

HIST: Pioneer Woman, pg 137: "Letitia. Grandmother Letitia, named after her grandmother, Letitia Dezel Chambers, to me, was a perfect example of the pioneer women who help develop the beautiful state of WA. She endured many of the hardships of early pioneer women, washing clothes on a washboard, using one of the heavy irons heated on the stove, with none of the modern conveniences we have become so accustomed to as necessities.
The only modern convenience, I remember, was a pump for water installed on the porch so it did not need to be carried a distance. However, there was no sink, only dishpans. She baked all the bread, pies and cakes, because in those days there were no bakeries. We lost my mother when I was about 13 yrs old (she was only 36) so I borrowed many a loaf of bread from my blessed grandmother. She must have baked extra, knowing I might have a need for some during the middle of the week.
Grandmother did all the milking of the cows and looked after the milk. I've wondered how she managed to keep the milk, unless it was in cans and placed in the creek that ran thru the farm, to keep it cool. Later they had a separator in what was called the milk house. Even though she worked with the cows she never wore pants or jeans, only the long dresses and aprons to the ankles, as was the style in those days.
In addition to looking after her own 7 children, there was always additional relatives or friends staying with Grandma. If there were any strays without a home, they just found a place with Grandmother. Even after most of the aunts and uncles were married, I cannot remember sitting down to dinner at Grandma's with less than 8-10 people and this was not a family get-together.
Grandmother's house was 2-story, with a large addition for the kitchen and dining. There was a dark stairway to the bedrooms upstairs; a long hall with the rooms, 5 as I recall, off each side, most without doors, maybe curtains. The house was surrounded with beautiful big trees, and in the yard were many various colors. There were holly-hocks, old fashioned lilacs and old fashioned yellow rose bushes, with all the thorns. All the family gathered each 4th of July for a big picnic, usually with home made ice cream. However, I remember one 4th. Ice cream was bought in North Yakima, and the hotter the weather, the ice cream did not melt. It must have been made with cornstarch. In the main part of the house was a parlor which was seldom used and a sitting room, fairly large, as it was divided for a bedroom for Great-great-grandfather Thomas Chambers, who came to live with Granmother when he was ill and quite old. He died at the age of 88 in 1911.
My grandmother spoke the Indian language fluently and many times the Indians would stop on their way from the mountains to bring her huckleberries and fish, often dried.
In 1878 Granmother was alone on the farm in Cowich, when she was warned there would be an Indian uprising. Grandfather was freighting for the government from Pt. Simmons to the the Dalles. She took her tiny baby in her arms and walked to the Ahtanum, across country, about 15 miles, to her aunt's home to get her Uncle John McAllister to come home with her. She must have left my mother, Anna Rebecca, home with someone. Another time, to show the strictness of their girls in those days, my mother and Aunt May drove into North Yakima to see a show with a couple of young men, of course in a horse and buggy. They were due home at a certain time and when they did not arrive on time, Grandmother started out on foot and met them at the top of the grade into
Cowiche and made them walk home with her, about 3 miles. One wonders why she did not ride her horse, Blue.
My Uncle Harvy was having some difficulty with his wife and thought the best thing to do was to shoot himself. In talking over the idea with Grandma, she said that was quite a good idea and asked him what gun he was planning to use and just where he expected to perform this little job. He decided to put off the idea at that time.
Letitia was born 14 Oct 1855 and died 28 Sep 1928. She was one of 4 children of Thomas Chambers and America McAllister Chambers. Her father was son of Judge Thomas McCutcheon Chambers and Letitia Chambers, who came by wagon to Oregon in 1840 and Washington Territory in 1848, settling on what is now Chambers Prairie near Steilacoom and Lacey. Thomas was born in Tenn in 1823 in the old home of Andrew Jackson, a cousin of his mother. Her father, James was killed in the Indian Wars on the coast in 1856. Submitted by Ethel Elliott Reilly

Letitia married Ira Livengood 28 Jun 1874, Yakima, Yakima, Washington Territory. Ira was born 23 May 1850, Decatur, Iowa, United States; died 24 Sep 1925, Cowiche, Yakima, Washington, United States. [Group Sheet]
