  • Introducing "Invisible Histories"

    Introducing "Invisible Histories"
    Dec 29 2023

    Welcome to “Invisible Histories” exploring Seattle’s lost stories. In this podcast we explore lost stories of marginalized people, hidden histories of forgotten places, and generally unearth some cool, creepy and hopefully meaningful connections for people living and working in the Seattle area and beyond.


    In our first series we explore the ‘lost’ Potter’s Field, a cemetery established in 1876 on land next to the King County Poor Farm and Hospital in what is now the Georgetown neighborhood. In just over 30 years over 3,260 people were buried there; people who due to lack of money, family or other connections had nowhere else to go when they died. In 1912 the Army Corps of Engineers embarked on the ambitious “Duwamish Canal,” turning the river’s meandering curves into a 5-mile shipping channel and turning “useless mudflats” into industrial land. The Duwamish Cemetery aka “Potter’s Field” was erased from maps and memories, covered with industrial businesses and all 3260 human remains were exhumed and cremated. Find out about who was buried there and what happened to their ashes.

    Welcome to Invisible Histories - Episode #2In this podcast we explore lost stories of marginalized people, hidden histories of forgotten places, and generally unearth some cool, creepy and hopefully meaningful connections for people living and working in the Seattle area and beyond. In this episode we go way back in time, to share the perspective of a character that rarely gets to tell its story — the land itself — how the cemetery removal was an example of forced industrialization and this progress at all costs mentality; contextualizing the land in Georgetown, and the existing death and burial practices of the time, as well as how there was an evolution of infrastructure as Seattle became what we like to think of as modern city in the early 1900s.Unearth the history of the land around the Potter’s Field with us and explore a glimpse of the old Seattle. This formerly out-of-the-way place that held the dead from the early days of Washington Territory up through Statehood in 1887, was erased from maps and memories as Seattle entered the Modern era.Featuring Elizabeth Davis PhD and music by Kevin MacLeod in a special introduction.Subscribe and keep listening wherever you get your podcasts.Read our latest newsletter!Check out our landing pageOur Instagram account will share images from each episode, @invisiblehistoriesPNWWe are always looking for “invisible histories” of the Pacific NW so if you have a good story idea please reach out at invisiblehistoriespnw@gmail.com.Our podcast music is from Samuel Coleridge Taylor's (1875 - 1912) Funeral March, Op. 79 Nº 3 (from Othello, Incidental Music)Recorded at Works Progress Cooperative www.worksprogress.coopEdited by Elke Hautala2023Resources:Elizabeth Davis, PhD: https://ess.uw.edu/people/elizabeth-davis/Samuel Coleridge Taylor: (1875 - 1912) Funeral March, Op. 79 Nº 3 (from Othello, Incidental Music) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Samuel_Coleridge-Taylor RH Thompson: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reginald_H._Thomson The King County Indigent Remains program https://kingcounty.gov/en/dept/dph/health-safety/medical-examiner/indigent-remains-program The King County Medical Examiner's Office unidentified remains. https://kingcounty.gov/en/dept/dph/health-safety/medical-examiner/unidentified-remains Cari Simson and Elke Hautala formed Invisible Histories to visually and viscerally connect the public to experiences from the past.
