Colonel Isaac Neff Ebey (January 22, 1818-August 11, 1857) born in Columbus, Ohio, was trained in the law. He married Rebecca Davis and they later had two sons. Isaac temporarily left his wife and sons in Missouri to journey into the American West in 1850, in particular the Pacific Coast. Ebey was the first permanent white resident of Whidbey Island, Washington in 1851. His family joined him in 1852. He was in the legislature when Oregon and Washington were divided and named Olympia capital of Washington Territory. He became the second Collector of Customs of Puget Sound. Ebey was shot to death and beheaded by Native Americans seeking revenge for the death of one of their chiefs in 1857.
