| Biography* | | I am searching for any information about my grandfather John Wesley HELMS who was estranged from my family when I was just a small boy in the late 1930s. He was supposed to have had siblings including a half brother in the Elmore Co. area. The last reported sighting of him was in Prattville Ala. where it is believed that he died in the late 1960s. He was married to Josephine CULPEPPER and they produced twin boys Lester Horace HELMS (my father) and Chester Forace HELMS both born on sept 15 1904. They also had the following daughters Katherine, Ruby, Jeanette and Pearl. I believe my Aunt Jeanette used to visit an uncle in Elmore Co. and referred to him as uncle Estes. The reason for this query is I am trying to tie into my great grandfather who I believe to be Jefferson Davis HELMS Source: John D. Helms, JDHELMS@webtv.net, Feb 1998. |
