I grew up picking Blueberries ( at Eastlick's Field) down the street from the Gleason County Store on Pine Lake, North East Of Issaquah, Washington. My younger brothers ran with the Grandson's of this family, Pat and Mike Gleason. Do not know their family history, but do know the Gleason Family has been In the Issaquah since the early 1900's or earlier. Have a 1926 map (that shows property owners) and Gleason name is all over it. In addition to records I have of the Issaquah Cemetery (Hillside) you will find the following:
Anna Gleason b.5-2-1893 d.2-4-1964
Francis Gleason b.8-4-1889 d.6-27-1951
Harold Gleason b.2-16-1916 d.3-2-1945
Leo Gleason b.7-10-1888 d.8-21-1967
Ruby Iona Gleason b.2-9-1893 d.1-11-1988
There are several othernames listed with no dates.
Not sure of living old timers in the area, But if your interested may be able to put you in contact with younger members, send me a email with either a phone number or address.
