W. S. Gilmore
W. S. Gilmore on January 5, 1912, mortgaged to Dialville State Bank for $676 “1 sawmill complete, 10 oxen.” A mortgage to the bank the next year revealed that besides the sawmill and oxen Gilmore also owned a clipper and a veneer machine, indicating he was a basket maker. This reinforces the assumption that he was located in the Dialville area, a location noted for basket-making businesses.
