History
Woodinville began as a logging town in the late 19th century, then in the early 20th century became a farming community and finally developing into a suburb of Seattle being incorporated as a city in 1933.
In 1871, Ira Woodin and his wife Susan moved from Seattle and up the Sammamish River to build a cabin, log timber and farm cattle. Gradually a town formed around the cabin which became the first school and Post Office, with Susan Woodin as Postmaster. The first general store was founded by Ira Woodin and his son-in-law Thomas Sanders.
