Try looking again? Maybe I'm missing something here, but I see the first link in the Duwamish dropdown showing GLO plat maps from an 1861 survey of Seattle region. A click on the t-sheets link brought up other images (1899)) that seem definitely suitable based on your description.
Cheers,

Thanks Harvey and Amir for the link to the Puget Sound Historic Rivers project. Great stuff there. However, all I found were maps for rivers rather than all of Seattle and its shoreline. So it would be faster for me to georeference a single old map of Seattle. So I am still looking for this data.
