Johnson Point (Thurston County, Washington)
Johnson Point is a point in the U.S. state of Washington.[1]
Johnson Point was named in 1853 after Dr. J. R. Johnson, a pioneer citizen.[2]
In 1984, residents in the Johnson Point area pentioned the Thurston County Auditor regarding the prosed formation of The City of Puget, which would covered the majority of Johnson Point. The purpose of this proposed City of Puget was intended to prevent the area's annexation to the nearby City of Lacey to the south.[3] The City of Puget failed to form.
