Ezra Meeker in Puyallup

Posted by dennis endres

Ezra Meeker was one of the first settlers in our area. He is remembered as a founder and started the city, from a farm along the river.

I have taken a few pictures from around town to remind us.  To this day, a lot of us Puyallup residents, take his name for granted.

As you can see, we have his name all around our fair city:

We see his statue in Pioneer Park.

We have a building with his name, housing a Real Estate Company.                                  Keller Williams and the office of Dennis Endres.

This is the Meeker’s home, now restored and open to public viewing.

This Historic site in downtown Puyallup, drop in, it opens next month.

Who is this out in Ezra’s front yard? Getting ready to work the fields??

I have more pictures to show you……

So, keep tuned in and I’ll share some more of our heritage!!!
