Between 1830 and 1840 Native Americans Settlement was discovered in the Puyallup Valley, then European settelers arrived in the 1850s. In 1877, Ezra Meeker platted a townsite and named it Puyallup after the local Puyallup Indian Tribes. By the 1880s Puyallup had become a major hop growing region, as the town grew rapidly throughout the 1880s being incorporated in 1890, with Ezra Meeker the first mayor. During the 20th Century the valley with the growth of nearby Tacoma and the Interurban rail lines, gave way to Western Washington Fairgrounds development giving local farmers a place to show off their crops and livestock. During the early part of World War II the fairgrounds were home to over 7,000 Japanese-American residents, known as Camp Harmony.
