This year, the Pierce Prairie Post editor, Marianne Lincoln will be on hand to tell stories of the Hudson Bay Company outposts in our area – that’s Fort Nisqually to many of you, but in our neighborhoods. She has tales of American Settlers, wagon trips gone wrong, Indian fishing and treaties, treason, arrests, jails, war and British land ownership. There is more to know about the place you live than meets the eye.
