Mary Thompson (died 1893) was one of Seattle, Washington's richest early African Americans. She owned the Minnehaha Saloon, which had a brothel upstairs. At the time of her death she had real estate in Seattle and in Butte, Montana. She also owned a horse and carriage, an extensive jewellery collection and $20,000 in cash. By the standards of the time, this made her quite wealthy.
