  • IN a FAMILIAR YET FOREIGN LAND the Life and Memories of Henry Sicade, 1866–1938 by Cary C
    WashingtonHistory.org IN A FAMILIAR YET FOREIGN LAND The Life and Memories of Henry Sicade, 1866–1938 By Cary C. Collins ed. COLUMBIA The Magazine of Northwest History, Summer 2005: Vol. 19, No. 2 Edited and with an introduction by Cary C. Collins, compiled by Oscar H. Jones Pathbreakers can emerge from collisions between seemingly opposing societies. These rare persons transcend their own circumstances to grasp the advantages and opportunities brought forth by the transforming encounter. Historian Margaret Connell Szasz has described these individuals as "cultural brokers," those who step confidently between divergent worlds, integrating the cultures and values of both. Puyallup tribal leader Henry Sicade may never have perceived of himself as a cultural broker, but he filled that role in many ways. Sicade was born in 1866, only a decade following the negotiation of the treaties of land cession that so irrevocably altered the course of Indian history in the Pacific Northwest. His life spanned the years of settlement and assimilation. Despite the obstacles that confronted him as an Indian living in the early 20th century, Sicade managed to embrace aspects of non-Indian culture and still retain his Puyallup identity. He aggressively and successfully utilized American institutions as a vehicle to propel himself, his family, and his tribe toward a better life while at the same time preserving and strengthening the cultural traditions of the Puyallup people. In 1873, just before his seventh birthday, Sicade enrolled in the Puyallup Indian School at Fife, near Tacoma. Seven years later he transferred to the first off-reservation boarding school west of the Mississippi, the Forest Grove Indian and Industrial Training School in Forest Grove, Oregon (now the Chemawa Indian School at Salem).

  • Cultural Resources Assessment, Parcel 77 Auto Import Terminal Project
    720 Olive Way, Suite 1900 Seattle, Washington 98101 206.287.9130 Memorandum January 16, 2018 To: Mark Rettmann, Port of Tacoma From: Barbara Bundy, Anchor QEA, LLC cc: Dan Berlin and Josh Jensen, Anchor QEA, LLC Re: Cultural Resources Assessment, Parcel 77 Auto Import Terminal Project Introduction The Port of Tacoma (Port) is proposing the Parcel 77 Auto Import Terminal Project (Project) at their 96-acre property located between the Blair and Hylebos Waterways at 3400 Taylor Way in Tacoma, Washington (Figure 1). The Project includes redeveloping the property into an automobile import terminal. Automobiles will be received from the Port’s adjacent Blair Waterway East Blair One (EB1) Terminal and transferred to the Project property across Alexander Avenue for processing and shipping. Automobiles will primarily be transported to inland markets from the Project property via rail. Trucks will also transport automobiles destined to local markets from the Project property. It is currently projected that between 80% and 90% of the imported cars will be transported inland by rail. Additionally, the Port is pursuing the option to install new stormwater piping from the Project property and a new stormwater outfall along the Blair Waterway. The Project is designed to operate permanently, with or without the optional new outfall in place, by instead using the proposed stormwater pump station and existing outfall. Upon receipt of applicable permits and approvals for the optional plan, the new outfall will be used for stormwater discharge, and the interim stormwater pump station will no longer be needed. The Port is currently conducting a State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA) analysis for the Project.

    The Promise and the Price of Contact: Puyallup Indian Acculturation, Federal Indian Policy and the City of Tacoma, 1832-1909 Kurt Kim Schaefer A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for a degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Washington 2016 Dr. John Findlay, Chair Dr. Alexandra Harmon Dr. Bruce Hevly Program Authorized to Offer Degree: Department of History The Promise and the Price of Contact: Puyallup Indian Acculturation, Federal Indian Policy and the City of Tacoma, 1832-1909 Copyright 2016 Kurt Kim Schaefer University of Washington Abstract The Promise and the Price of Contact: Puyallup Indian Acculturation, Federal Indian Policy and the City of Tacoma, 1832-1909 Kurt Kim Schaefer Chair of the Supervisory Committee: Dr. John Findlay Department of History History shows that Native American contact with Euro-Americans led to many Indians’ loss of land, resources, and independence. Between 1832 and 1909, numerous Puyallup Indians of the south Puget Sound suffered this fate as they dealt with newly imported Euro-American diseases and colonialism. As tragic as this era in history was to the Puyallup, it was also a time when many tribal members continued a long tradition of embracing outside influences into their lives and shaping them to fit their cultural needs. This study will show that prior to 1832, the Puyallup had a long, complex, and generally prosperous relationship with other communities in the Puget Sound region and cultural transformation was a normal part of their life. After 1832, change came more quickly and, unfortunately, was more destructive. Nevertheless, many Puyallup continued accepting change and some successfully shaped their new situation to fit their needs, just as their ancestors had done.
