CHIEF SEATTLE

One of the great Chiefs here in the Northwest was Chief Seattle. He was leader of both the Suquamish and Duwamish Tribes. He arose to his leadership as a result of being distingusihed for his action and skills. He wanted both culture to exised together. Chief Seatlle died June 7 1866 on the Suquamish Res. at Port Madison in Kitsap County, WA. The Suquamish tribe honors Chief Seattle each third week of Aug. It is a great time. If anyone gets the chance to be there you will not be disappointed. The Only Chief to lead two Tribes-here in the Northwest
