Historian Junius Rochester said of the physician David S. Maynard's (1808-1873) first residence in Duwamps, an American Indian name for the settlement that became Seattle, WA: "Doc Maynard hired Indians to help him build a cabin on the Sag,' or lowlands (present-day Pioneer Square, near present day Yesler Way). Maynard built his cabin on what is now the northwest corner of First Avenue South and Main Street, near the water."
