Administrative history
The original Pugets Sound Agricultural Company came into being in 1839 as a subsidiary branch of the Hudson's Bay Company in response to the intended private Oregon Beef and Tallow Company. It functioned primarily in the Cowlits Valley and the Puget Sound area to the north of the Columbia River. Its purpose was partly to victual the fur trade establishments and also the nascent and burgeoning communities of the region. Its initial deed of settlement was dated December 23, 1840 and was first printed in 1912
