John H. Lohmann who homesteaded in the next section south of the Kirmse land was issued a Land Patent in March of 1912.

Where
Goodwin, Ellis County, Oklahoma – Section 30 is just south of Section 19 containing the Wilhelm Kirmse homestead – about 1 mile east Goodwin, Oklahoma and about 8 miles southwest of Shattuck, Oklahoma.
Notes
- The John H. Lohmann land patent was issued about two years after the land patent was issued to Wilhelm Kirmse. I assume that Lohmann applied about 1906.
