Kathryn,
I looked at your other postings and see a large number of inquiries. Thus, pardon me, I'm "assuming" you have a good background in genealogy research and probably have already obtained US Census information on this family. I see most of your postings have very little information on what you have. Most researchers would see all of your postings and likewise believe you have already done the basics, so they would probably not assist. To assure more help in the future, identify specifically what specific information you have and that you want. I don't know if the person below, "lamron", is you or someone else; but they appear to have information on William and Wilhelmina. It appears they emigrated from Germany to Canada in 1852, then in 1868 came on down to America.
I find several family trees posted on this family. I've included the Ancestry.com location of the tree in the event you have Ancestry. If not, you might be able to access it at your local library. I've also sent a message to the person posting to read this thread. For those identified as living, you can find some of them using www.zabasearch.com

Berneva married Ronald Brazeau and had two sons and two daughters. Berneva died Oct 1990 in LaGrande.
2. The Chandler Family Tree, owned by "vchandler56" (No contact possible)

4. Thompson family tree, owned by "lamron"
http://trees.ancestry.com/pt/person.aspx?tid=56881&pid=-1505294291
The tree begins with William and Wilhelmina. He died after 1881 in Iowa, she in 1901. Son Albert is shown. Albert was born July 1849 in Canada, immigrated 1868 to the US, lived in Elgin, Union Co, OR. He and Margaret Barth had six sons and 2 daughters. This tree has info on the birth and death of these 8, but no further lineage online. This person may have those records and just online. This person also may be you, I saw a "Smith" name in the records.
The book, "An Illustrated History of Union and Wallowa Counties w/ a Brief Outline of Early History of State of Oregon", p. 293." was found on Heritage Quest online and page 293/294 was copied and sent directly. It concerned Albert Ohm.
These pages are also found at:

It does not appear the Otto Ohms in Idaho were related.
