Description
English:

This photo of Seattle pioneers Carson D. Boren, Mary Ann Boren Denny, Rolland Herschel Denny, Louisa Catherine Denny Frye, and Mary Low Sinclair was taken on November 13, 1905 in front of a granite obelisk erected to commemorate the fifty-fourth anniversary of their arrival in Seattle. These individuals were the remaining members of the 24 person party led by Arthur Armstrong Denny, who had landed with the schooner Exact at Alki Point on November 13, 1851. The party had left Illinois on April 10, 1851, drawn by favorable descriptions of the climate, soil, and terrain of the Northwest that had been filtering eastward after the recent passing of the Donation Land Law.
