tinner and plumber. Leaving home at eighteen years of age, he pursued his trade
in San Francisco. He spent the years from 1882 to 1884 in Los Angeles, managing
the extensive tinning and plumbing business of Harper, Reynolds & Company. The
years 1885 and 1886 were spent at San Bernardino. Locating at Santa Monica in
1887 he embarked in the hardware and plumbing business at which he has been
continuously engaged until the present year, 1907, but is now closing out.

    Mr. Boehme was married in 1884 at San Bernardino to Miss Addie Oliver, a
native of Calaveras County, California. They have four children, Henry L, Howard
E., Margaret M., and Herbert L. Boehme. Mrs. Boehme died.
