Son of Peter Leboyteaux Wimmer and Elizabeth Jane (Cloud) Wimmer. Peter and Elizabeth were at Coloma, when the original gold nugget was found that started the gold rush. Peter III was born in Coloma but in 1854.
He married Cornelia "Connie" Tracy in 1889. Below is an interesting article I found about their "marriage":

San Diego, March 15.
