About it

The two-storey frame building at Coveland, at the head of Penn Cove, that served as Island County’s first courthouse from 1855, photographed for the Historic American Buildings Survey in the 1930s; the water of the cove shows behind it in the first picture. Coveland was the county seat beside Richard Holbrook’s claim, and the townsite where his children were born.
