• ... that "first settler of Asotin County" was the second? Source: https://www.historylink.org/File/7848 "Bracken is known as the "first settler of Asotin County," but this is technically not correct; Sam Smith had actually set up a small hotel and store near the same spot on Alpowa Creek perhaps four or five months before Bracken's arrival. Smith stayed only briefly, however, and it appears that Bracken was probably the second settler in the future Asotin County."
