WILLIAM HENRY GILMOUR was born in Tangent, Linn County, Oregon in April 1868 and died in Los Angeles County, California on 11 January 1928. His parents were WILLIAM DAVID GILMOUR and HARRIETT L. [COOPER] GILMOUR. His father died about the time he was born and his mother remarried prior to 1870 to a JOHN HENDERSON. In the 1870 U.S. Census he was listed with his mother HARRIETT L. HENDERSON and step - father JOHN HENDERSON in the Sand Ridge Precinct of Linn County, Oregon. His brother, JOHN L. GILMOUR was listed as living next door in the home of his uncle, JOHN THOMAS and VIRGINIA GILMOUR and his grand parents, JOHN WILSON and JANE GILMOUR were listed as living two houses away.

In the 1880 U.S. Census, WILLIAM H. GILMOUR 'age 12' was listed with his mother "HATTIE HENDERSON", step - father, JOHN HENDERSON, and a half sister, LULA in East Kittitas, Yakima County, Washington Territory next door to his great aunt ELIZABETH (LINEBARGER) WHEATON and husband DAVID WHEATON. Also, nearby, were the families of two of his GILMOUR uncles, JAMES ALEXANDER GILMOUR and JOHN THOMAS GILMOUR who had also relocated from Oregon.

Shortly after 1880 WILLIAM HENRY GILMOUR followed some of his LINEBARGER cousins who had settled in Ventura County, California near Santa Paula. There was a JOHN D. HENDERSON listed in the "voter" rolls in Santa Paula in 1882, and it possible that this was his step - father who might have moved there with his mother HARRIET. In any event WILLIAM HENRY GILMOUR was listed in Santa Paula on 11 Sep 1890 in the Ventura County Voter Register as a "brick layer". He married MARTHA ANN BARRINGER in Santa Paula on 7 April 1890 and they became the parents of four children: GENEVA B.
