A piece of history information for Washington State. Stanwood
This came from a new paper clipping I found.
"Did you know that when Merchant Daniel O. Pearson settled with his family on the StillagumishRiver and then became Postmaster, he gave the community his wife's maiden name of Stanwood? Their beautiful home now is the museum of Stanwood Area Historical Society. (Photo courtesy of the Stanwood ares Historical Society)"
