National Park Service is not responsible
for the determinations in this notice.
Abstract of Information Available
Human remains representing, at least,
one individual have been identified.
The one associated funerary object is a
large mammal rib. The human remains
and associated funerary object in this
notice were removed from Sinclair
Island in Skagit County, WA from an
area ‘‘westerly of Urban’’. The
community of Urban is in the southwest
portion of Sinclair Island. In 1952, Dr.
Herbert Taylor and WWU students
conducted an excavation, the exact
location of which is unknown, however
the Women’s Athletic Association of the
Bellingham Normal School, now WWU,
purchased property with a cabin on
Sinclair Island in 1928. This property is
located west of and near the community
of Urban. No known individuals were
identified. No hazardous chemicals are
known to have been used to treat the
human remains while in the custody of
WWU.
The human remains in this notice are
connected to one or more identifiable
earlier groups, tribes, peoples, or
cultures. There is a relationship of
shared group identity between the
identifiable earlier groups, tribes,
peoples, or cultures and one or more
Indian Tribes or Native Hawaiian
organizations. The following types of
information were used to reasonably
trace the relationship: anthropological
information, archaeological information,
geographical information, historical
information, and oral tradition.
