Posted on: Talbot County, Ga Query Forum Reply Here: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/Ga/Talbot/10715 Surname: HELMS ------------------------- John, I did reply privately to your post. Allen HELMS, who is a possible father for my great grandfather, Sampson Dawster HELMS, was a brother of your Andrew T. HELMS, I believe. More likely, the father of SDH was Charles HELMS, and the connection to your line would be more distant. Gene Helms in Dallas
