Description
English:

Guendolen Carkeek Plestcheeff (1892-1994) was born in Seattle in 1892 at the First Hill mansion home of her parents, British-born Seattle pioneers Morgan and Emily Carkeek. Guendolen attended elementary school at the old Pacific School in Seattle, and was sent to Europe for schooling at age 13. Following in the footsteps of her mother, who founded the Seattle Historical Society, Guendolen was active in promoting preservation of local history, and was President of Seattle Historical Society for 17 years. Plestcheeff was instrumental in helping the Society acquire the property off Lake Washington Boulevard on which the Museum of History & Industry stands today.
