Dillis B. Ward was a Seattle pioneer. In his published travel journal “Across the Plains in 1853," he recalled his travel on the Oregon Trail from his homeland of Kentucky to Oregon.

This grand Queen Anne mansion was built in 1889 for Ward and his family. They left the residence after the 1893 panic.

In 1900, it was rented by William Pitt and Cannie (Ford) Trimble. Read more about William Pitt Trimble. Read about the tragic death of Cannie.
