	Lou Graham would hire others who lived at her venue as seamstresses offering tailoring services, a cover for sex workers at the time. Lou herself had a romantic relationship and partnership with another woman, Amber Delmas[6], and she hired, possibly, transgender women who would be requested by clients as "the lady in the black dress". Lou Graham never became a citizen of the United States, a German immigrant, but did make an attempt in 1894. She had no known children while here[7,8] however had an adopted daughter, Ulma Delmas[9, 10]. Ulma is the daughter of her "housekeeper" Amber Delmas, believed to be Lou's romantic partner. Graham's possessions were challenged by relatives in Germany but, without citizenship, all her property in Washington could acquired by the state through escheatment. Abrams, who sold her the lot in 1885, attempted to seize her property claiming the title he gave her was invalid as she never had citizenship[11]. The matter was highly contested[12,13,14].

Ulma was said to get most of the estate, but the will was destroyed in an argument between Amber and Lou.

Also Robert Abrams, who sold her the lot in 1885, attempted to seize her property claiming the title he gave her was invalid as she never had citizenship[11]. The matter was highly contested for several years[12,13,14]. In 1907 the Washington State Supreme Court determined that because neither Robert Abrams nor the state pursued the estate during her lifetime that neither held merit to receive the property, which was then given to her German relatives[15].

	=== Relationship with Amber Delmas ===		=== Relationship with Amber Delmas ===

	Amber Delmas can be found in records as the "housekeeper" of Lou Graham. Lou purchased a residence on Madison ~~street~~ for them to live together with Amber's daughter, Ulma, who Lou would also guardian. It was believed they wanted to keep the child away from her parlor and provide a better life for her. When the parlor was forced to close after the "deadline" (the border of the vice district) was moved, Lou Graham and Amber Delmas moved away with their daughter to San Francisco where they operated a similar parlor. The Seattle Daily Times reported that an argument happened while in San Francisco shortly before Lou's death. Upon Lou's death, a caretaker brought the child to Victoria where Snyder, Ulma's father, would kidnap her to Seattle. Amber would learn of the death of her caretaker and go to Ulma in Seattle. It is said Ulma was supposed to receive a large portion of Graham's inheritance, but the will was allegedly destroyed in the argument between Lou and Amber.
