Biography

Research Notes

In 1910, Gene Lane (17 Black) and Wesly Reeves (13 Black) were working on the farm and Robert Cooper (14 Black) was working in the blacksmith shop. It is the only census enumeration on which the three young men have been found in this household; however, the 1920 Census enumeration for the Helms household has not been located.

Please see the profile created for Robert Cooper who was working for George's brother in 1920.
