Filed in Portraits--Horton, Dexter

Dexter Horton (1825-1904) was raised in Illinois. He arrived in Seattle in 1853 as a member of what was called the "Bethel Party" (or Bethel Company), Seattle's second covered-wagon expedition. Horton worked in Henry Yesler's mill, then started a general store at 1st Avenue and Washington Street where he looked after local workers' money, thereby becoming Seattle's first "banker." Eventually he founded the Dexter Horton Bank, forerunner of SeaFirst Bank.
