Ledger Notes:  Age:  79 Yrs.  5 Mos.  1 Day  Funeral:  C.A. Hodson
Contribution from neighbor, Stephen Baker:  Christian and Kattie Wilhelm purchased remainder of John Zumwalt DLC (westerly portion--adjacent to and west of the Graham's Ferry landing), w/ original Zumwalt house (razed in late 1990's) and barn (razed in early 1990's). Not homesteaders. Their new, "modern" barn still stands and has been restored by the equestrian facility. Some of the Zumwalt fruit trees still exist also.   The Wilhelms were from Germany (probably present-day Alsace-Lorraine area).  The Family sailed by sailing vessel "around The Horn" and brought much fancy furniture (including a rosewood piano) and modern farm equipment and were considered more affluent than the surrounding farmers at the time.

Two of their children were Henry and Lena, who both lived at the farm until their deaths. Frances Wilhelm (long-time teacher) was Henry's wife. Charles Gill (buried beside Lena) was Frances's brother. No blood relation w/ the Wilhelms.

This Wilhelm family is NOT related to the Wilhelms from the Stafford Area (Wilhelm Farms).

Contribution form neighbor, Stephen Baker:  Son of Christian and Kattie Wilhelm, he and his sister Lena both lived at the Wilhelm farm until their deaths.  Frances Wilhelm (long-time teacher) was Henry's wife. Charles Gill (buried beside Lena) was Frances's brother. No blood relation w/ the Wilhelms.  Henry and his sister, Lena, attended a 1-room schoolhouse at a location near the intersection of SW Graham's Ferry and SW Bell Road, just west of the 1906 Edward & Emma Baker home (2-sty., still standing, though extensively expanded). There was a post office in the previous, old house and the postal name was "Graeme, Oregon." There was a Graeme family on the southern terminus of the Graham's Ferry crossing, or this could have been another, old spelling for the John Graham family name. Would have to investigate US Postal records.

This Wilhelm family is NOT related to the Wilhelms from the Stafford Area (Wilhelm Farms).
