Clara L. Helton1

b. 3 July 1889, d. 26 January 1960
Father*Joseph Engle Helton2,1 b. 29 Oct 1842, d. 11 Feb 1916
Mother*Zuritha Elizabeth Parker3,1 b. Feb 1853, d. 1913
Birth*3 July 1889Clara L. Helton was born on 3 July 1889 in Goldsberry, Macon County, Missouri.1 
Name VariationHer full name was Clara Luvina Helton.1 
(Second Wife) Divorce Although the timing of the break-up of their marriage is not clear to us. On the 1925 Iowa State census of Council Bluffs, they were enumerated together, with their eight children, and recorded as married. It's possible, however, that only Rachel responded to the questions of the census taker, and that Harry had already moved away and started a new family. On the 1930 census of Council Bluffs, Iowa, Rachel was enumerated as a "widow" and the head of her household, with the couple's six unmarried children. Harry, that year, on the 1930 census of St. Louis, Missouri, was enumerated with his second wife, Clara Luvina (Helton) Brown, and four children between the ages of 2 and 7 years. All of the children were recorded with the surname BROWN, and the three older children had been born in New Mexico. No evidence has yet been found to place Harry in New Mexico, and Clara was recorded on the 1930 census as having married for the first time at age 31, or ten years earlier. So, we've concluded from the information we have, that all four of the children were Clara's, and that at least the youngest, Roy, was also Harry's child. If Harry and Rachel separated and divorced shortly after they were enumerated with their first seven children on the 1920 census, and around the birth of their last child who was born about 1921, all of Clara's four children may have also been Harry's.

We feel confident that "someone out there" knows the truth and can put the confusion in our minds to rest with the answers. We will greatly appreciate the help. If that someone is you, or someone you know, please contact us with the information.4,5,6 
Marriage*She married, as his second wife, Harry C. Brown, son of John H. Brown and Albertine Elliott.1,7 
Census US 1930*2 April 1930Clara and Harry C. Brown were enumerated on the 1930 census taken on 2 April 1930 at 2914 Arsenal Street, St. Louis, Missouri. Harry was 48 years of age, had been age 23 when he married for the first time, and was employed for wages as a Meat Cutter in a Butcher Shop. Clara was 41 years of age and had been age 31 when she married for the first time. They rented their house for $27.50 per month, and four children were enumerated with them in 1930, all with the surname BROWN. Charles and Clara had been born in New Mexico, were ages 7 and 5 years, respectively, and had attended school within the census year; Rosemary had also been born in New Mexico and was 3 years old; Roy, who was born in Missouri, was 2 years old. While we suspect that Roy was the son of both Harry and Clara (Helton) Brown, the biological parentage of the New Mexico children, Charles, Clara and Rosemary, has not yet been determined.6 
Death*26 January 1960She died on 26 January 1960 in Brookfield, Linn County, Missouri, at age 701 
Burial* and was buried in Parklawn Memory Gardens Cemetery, Brookfield.1

(wife) Accident20 June 1913A newspaper article in the Dawson County Review, Glendive, Montana, published on 20 June 1913 under the title, "Wibaux Men Reported Drowned at Intake", stated that a report had come from the nearby community of Intake that Emil and his father, August G. Bretsch, cement contractors of Wibaux, in Wibaux County, entered a small skiff near that place the previous Sunday with the intention of crossing the Yellowstone River. Five days later, the newspaper was reporting that nothing has been seen of them since and it was feared they had become victims of the swirling currents of the treacherous stream, which was then at quite a high stage. Bretsch and his son were quite well known in Glendive.

A week later, on 27 June 1913, the same newspaper, under the heading, "Intake News", reported that the boat in which Mr. Bretsch and his son tried to cross the river about ten days before, was said to have been found at Burns, in the county of Richland. The story noted that the previous year, that same boat, owned by G. R. Cummins, was locked up on the opposite side of the river, and that a man broke the lock and in is attempt to cross the river to Intake was carried over the dam and drowned. The Bretsch homestead was about ten miles from Intake, and the son, Eric, who was but eighteen years old, didn't want to cross the river in a boat and begged his father to go around to Wibaux via Glendive on the train, and from there walk across the country about twenty-five miles to their homestead. His father thought that seventy-five miles around was too much traveling to get to their home, which was but ten miles from Intake, and decided to make the attempt, which ended in the loss of both their lives. Mrs. Bretsch was reported to be frantic over the misfortune that had befallen her, and the newspaper expressed its hope the county would put in a bridge at that point where it was so much needed.4,5 
Death*15 March 1932She died on 15 March 1932 in Gallatin County, Montana, at age 681 
Burial* and was buried in Sunset Hills Cemetery, Bozeman, Gallatin County.1

Dine, about 150 miles away in Highland, Osceola County, Michigan. David was 50 years of age and worked as a farmer. Earl’s parents, we believe, had already separated and were in the process of ending their marriage, as his mother was recorded as married in 1900, and his father was recorded as widowed.

Birth*23 May 1842Celia Ann Hendren was born on 23 May 1842 in Madison, Monroe County, Missouri.1,3 
Marriage*She married Joseph Heathman, son of Benjamin Heathman and Lucinda Hunter.1 
Census US 1880*17 June 1880Celia and Joseph Heathman were enumerated on the 1880 census taken on 17 June 1880 in Marion, Monroe County, Missouri. Joseph was 43 years of age and a farmer and Celia was 38 years of age and keeping house. They were enumerated with their six children. Sallie was 18 years old and at home; Nancy was 16 years old, at home, and had attended school within the census year; Mary, Walter and Ida were ages 14, 12 and 10 years, respectively and had all attended school with the census year; and young John was 5 years old.4 
(Bride's Mother) Marriage23 November 1882Celia and Joseph held the marriage ceremony in their home on 23 November 1882, performed by a Minister of the Gospel, for their daughter, Nannie, and John W. Medley.5 
(Bride's Mother) Marriage28 December 1882Celia and Joseph held the marriage ceremony in their home on 28 December 1882, performed by a Minister of the Gospel, for their daughter, Mollie, who was age 15, and Moses L. Roberson, who was age 19.6 
Census US 1900*4 June 1900Celia and Joe Heathman were enumerated on the 1900 census taken on 4 June 1900 in Marion, Monroe County, Missouri. Joe was 63 years of age and a farmer, and Celia was 58 years of age. They owned their farm with a mortgage and Celia had given birth to seven children, six of whom were enumerated with their parents in 1900. Their eldest daughter, Sarah A., was single and 36 years of age. Their 2nd daughter, Nancy E. Heathman, was probably visiting, as she was also enumerated two months later at her home in Oklahoma with her husband and four children. Nancy was recorded in her parents' home as Nancy E. Heathman, her maiden name, 35 years of age and single, although she had been married for almost 18 years. The couple's 3rd child, also a daughter, was enumerated as Mary S. Heathman, 33 years of age and single. She had married in 1882 at age 15, given birth to four children, two of whom had survived. We believe she was divorced because her former husband, Moses L. Roberson had married a second time in 1893, and the children he had had with Mary were enumerated with him in 1900. The Heathman sons, Walter and John H., were both single and ages 31 and 25 years, respectively, and the youngest daughter and 7th child, Maud L., was age 17. No occupations or schooling was recorded for any of the Heathman children. The only one of the couple's children who was not enumerated with them in 1900 was their 4th daughter and 5th child, Ida Belle (Heathman) Vincent, who had married in 1896 and lived with her husband and children in Iowa.3 
(Wife) Death16 October 1903Celia became a widow when John Ashford Heathman died on 16 October 1903 at age 67.7 
(Mother) Census US 191026 April 1910Celia Ann was enumerated on the 1910 census taken on 26 April 1910 in the household of her son and daughter-in-law, Lela and John H. Heathman, in Marion, Monroe County, Missouri. Celia was a widow, 67 years of age and had given birth to seven children, five of whom were living. Her daughters, Mary S. (Heathman) Roberson and Ida Belle (Heathman) Vincent, had both died between the dates of the 1900 and 1910 censuses.8
