First, when you post an inquiry, it is VERY important to provide some dates with those that you search. The date of birth, date of death would be helpful to find this William Palmer.

But, I think the problem lies in that you posted to Lincoln County message board in Washington State.

I found a Canby Funeral Home in Canby, Clackamas County, Oregon. It lead to finding the cemetery:
