Wilson's grandfather that Harrison went west.  We have no evidence that Harrison Wimer's name was William, but as that was his father' name it is quite possible.  It is however also possible that some researcher has found the Texas death record for a William Wimer, born 1889, and attached that to Harrison Wimer without corroborating evidence.  Additional sources needed.

 Thomas James Conroy, aged 69, 1236 East Washington Street, died at the Bashline hospital in Grove City early this morning following a three weeks illness from heart trouble. Mr. Conroy was born in Ireland but has been a resident of this city many years, having been a foreman at the Carnegie Steel Mill the past forty years. Sadness is added to his death by the fact that his wife is seriously ill in the Bashline hospital having undergone an operation and will be unable to attend funeral services. Mr. Conroy is survived by his wife, Mrs. Jennie Conroy, two step sons, Lester Wimer and Lowry Wimer and a step-granddaughter, Mrs. R.A. Seamans of this city. Funeral services will be held on Monday at 10 a.m. from the residence 1236 East Washington Street with Rev. E.C. Anderson and Rev. S.B. Copeland officiating. Interment will be made in the Mt. Zion cemetery.
