Examples of events that would be included:
*1811 - Fort Okanogan was founded for fur trading. Ownership transferred at various times from John Jacob Astors fur company, North West Company, Pacific Fur Company, and Hudson's Bay Company. (Importance to users: there could be records somewhere. However, we only list the event, we don't look for the records -- at least not yet.)

Examples of events that don't affect records or record-keeping, but may still be interesting
