Reliance, Washington

I was recently doing some research on Reliance, Washington to find more articles so I submit a draft for it to be published. However, I came across something strange, and I wonder if it should be put in the draft.

First off, Reliance is a town in Pierce County. 3.5 miles west from Elbe. However the article got moved to the draft space for not having enough sources, So I tried to find more sources for it. However on my quest I came across some images.

https://digitalcollections.lib.washington.edu/digital/collection/clarkkinsey/search/searchterm/cascade. One of these images is also on Wikimedia. These images may not seem interesting at first. But in some of them there is an added context, " Reliance was a logging community on the north side of the Nisqually River three and a half miles west of Elbe in southern Pierce County. It was inundated by Alder Dam and a community called New Reliance was built a half mile north of Alder. The Reliance Lumber Company built the original Reliance. A nearby hill is called Reliance Hill."

So this tells that there was a town called Reliance that got flooded by Alder Dam. It also says it was 3.5 miles west from Elbe. So it must be the same Reliance! However, Reliance still exists! So does this mean Reliance was flooded, and then rebuilt by the shore? Would this be notable and a reliable source to put on the draft? Bigfatman8766 (talk) 04:57, 15 February 2024 (UTC)

There appears to be a site called "New Reliance" that was served by excursion trains on the Mount Rainier Scenic Railroad from Elbe. I recommend looking through The News Tribune archives on Newspapers.com. SounderBruce 07:39, 15 February 2024 (UTC)
