Findagrave.com says the following regarding Austin Bell, who is interred in a mausoleum in Lake View Cemetery:

Austin Bell was the son of William Bell, the co-founder of the City of Seattle. "Bell town" in Seattle, is also named after the Bell Family.

Austin A. Bell died from a self inflicted gun shot wound after he started seeing signs of his father's dementia in himself. In a shaky note to his wife, he explained that life with such poor health was not worth living. (this is noted in the Seattle Times article.)
