Puget, Washington
Puget is an unincorporated community in Thurston County, in the U.S. state of Washington.[1]
History
Puget was platted in 1873, but an economic downturn in 1893 stunted growth.[2] A post office named Puget City began in 1890, and shut in 1893; a newly-renamed post office named Puget opened in 1904, and closed permanently in 1928.[3][2]
