Point No Point, WA HL 354 2007 summer Release Edition size 1,500 In 1841, US Navy Lt. Charles Wilkes began the exploration of Puget Sound and from his ship named a small piece of land, barely visible, Point No Point. Three local Indian Tribes, the S’kallum, Chimacum and the Skokomish had settled this small parcel of land. In 1855 they came together on the site to sign the Point No Point Treaty with Territorial Gov. Isaac Stevens ending the Indian Wars. In the 1850’s and 60’s lighthouses were being built along the coast of Washington state. The Puget Sound, the destination of many vessels, was still without a single Light. In 1900 the fog bell was replaced by a Daboll Trumpet. The lens in the tower was later upgraded to a Fourth Order Lens in 1915 and is still in place today.
