He was my wife's (Sylvia Clapp) great uncle, the family knew very little about William M. Clapp other than he was born in 1877 in Adams, Wisconsin. Much of the fertilizer used on the land irrigated by the Columbia Basin project came from the fertilizer operation I managed for a number of years in Trail, BC. We'll visit Billy Clapp lake sometime in the near future.
