McLean
Captain Daniel McLean was a Civil War veteran. He and his first wife, Magadeline Alf, settled on 95 acres in Rosedale in 1884. Their eldest son was Donald. The McLean home was the unofficial community center among neighbors; hosting meetings, potluck dinners and dances, when a fiddler could be found. Magadeline was the area's first postmistress (1883-1887) before the Rosedale Post Office was built in 1887. Daniel petitioned Washington Governor Newell for a schoolhouse to be built on land he donated to the community. The petition was granted and construction began in 1884. Megadeline died in 1887, along with an infant son. Daniel later married Sarah Cooper. They had a daughter, Mildred. After Daniel's death, Sarah and the children moved to Tacoma, and later British Columbia. The land for the Rosedale Cemetery was donated by Sarah, according the wishes of
her late husband. (source: A History of Pierce County Washington )
