SERVICES FOR OLD SETTLER HERE TUESDAY

Farmed near Colusa For 23 Years; Leaves Five Children

Funeral services will be held at Our Lady of Lourdes church here next Tuesday 
at 10 am for John B. Boehmer, 82, former prominent Colusa farmer, who died this 
morning at 9:15 o'clock at the home of his daughter, Mrs Catherine Lane, in 
Richmond after a lingering illness. Members of the family were with him at the 
end. Born in Missouri, August 8, 1853, Boehmer came to California in 1881 and 
settled on the east side near the Butte Creek schoolhouse. He lived there for 
23 years and was eminently successful as a farmer. In 1904 he moved to Maxwell 
and farmed there for a few years, then returned to the east side near 
Princeton. In 1915 he disposed of his farming interests and moved to Colusa. 
Two years ago he went to Richmond to make his home with his daughter.

Catherine Lane of Richmond, Dr. George A. Boehmer of Richmond and Henry and
