Portland was only 18 years old in 1906 when Walter and Luther Wilkinson bought the undertaking business from Tobe Anderson. They officially opened their new business near the corner of Broadway and Market Streets, where the gazebo now stands.
The information comes from privately owned records maintained by Wilkinson & Wiseman Funeral Home in Portland, Sumner County, Tennessee. These records are published with written permission from Charles Wilkinson, to whom we owe our sincerest thanks.
The present funeral home, located on Hwy. 109 in Portland, was built about 1955. This business is still owned and operated by Wilkinson and Wiseman descendents.
