[or-roots] Frank Grimm Family

[Sue Steward]

In the 1910 census he was listed as a lumber grader so the information 
provided by Bill certainly seems logical.  I still am of the opinion that 
there was probably a newspaper article regarding the accident.  I'd check 
with the Klamath County Library about a newspaper article in June 1944.

The Klamath County Library is located in Klamath Falls, Oregon  97601
