This is the oldest continuously occupied house in the state of Washington. James Thompson came to Port Gamble on the schooner Towana and his descendants lived in the home for more than 99 years. The Thompsons owned the house as private property and paid the company an annual ground rent of $1.00 per year. James and Sarah raised their 5 children here where son and grandson followed James as saw filers in the mill.| HM Number | HM24U2 |
