Timm, J William: (1886-1950); "Will, the second son of August W and Dorothea Buhr Timm, worked with his father at the homeplace. J William and Lena L Beck were married March 22, 1910 in the parsonage of the Zion Lutheran Church by Rev Ebert. They lived in the house that August H bought in 1912. John August was born in this house on Feb 6, 1911. August W Timm purchased land near Eltopia which was to be the next move for Lena and Will. While in Eltopia they were blessed with a daughter, Dorothea Barbara, born on March 8, 1912. Life did not present a good future so they moved to land grandpa had purchased in the Rocklyn area for several years. Sylvia was born August 24, 1914. The following year we moved to the Haase place on Crab Creek, between Edwall and Bluestem. Jan 12, 1916 our youngest brother was born. He was baptized Leonard Albert Christian Timm. In 1917 we moved to the ‘Old Wagner Place'…. Papa had another stroke in the spring of 1950. He was then moved to a nursing home. Another stroke was experienced by Papa. My mother was also hospitalized. Sylvia and I were with our dad when the Lord took him home, June 30, 1950. A special service was held in Spokane so my mother could attend. The next day funeral services were held in Davenport. He was laid to rest in the Timm plot at Mountain View near his parents, his baby son and his brother."
