Whenever I think of an island , almost immediately I start to hear the song ‘islands in the stream’ & I think of Tom Hanks talking to Wilson. Islands are actually quite nice & tranquil destinations. Have you heard of Anderson island? This place is quite cool , let me tell you about it.
About Anderson island
Anderson Island is a census-designated place in Pierce County, Washington, United States, and is the southernmost island in Puget Sound. It can be reached by boat or by taking a 20-minute ferry journey from Steilacoom. Just south of McNeil Island is Anderson Island. Drayton Passage separates Key Peninsula from the rest of the peninsula to the northwest. To the southeast, the island is separated from the mainland by Puget Sound’s south basin, while to the southwest, the island is separated from the mainland by Puget Sound’s Nisqually Reach.
The island was part of the Steilacoom people’s domain, a Coast Salish tribe.
Charles Wilkes of the United States Exploring Expedition named the island in 1841. Mr. Anderson and Captain McNeill gave Wilkes a warm welcome at Fort Nisqually and aided his operations, so he rewarded their courtesy by naming two adjacent islands after them.
The first European settlers to dwell on the island were Andrew N. Christensen, a Dane, and his brother, Christian F. Christensen, in 1870. Andrew’s wife had an important role in the island’s growth. Christian was the only Christensen brother to live on Anderson Island permanently. The sale of wood to the wood-burning steamers that came into Amsterdam Bay was the mainstay of the economy. Brick-making, farming, and fishing were among the early enterprises.
The single General Store on the island is owned and operated by a local person.
