This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: helton Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/IMi.2ACEB/1199 Message Board Post: I am searching for a veteran of WWII, Ora Helton, who served in the 561st Field Artillery Battalion. He would have been born between 1906 and 1925. I've checked the World War II Memorial Registry for entries people have made honoring a veteran of WWII, and I've gathered all the data I can from the Social Security Death Index and the 1930 Census. Unfortunately, both the SSDI and the 1930 Census do not give me anything on military service for WWII that is useful in locating this man today or descendants of this man and their whereabouts today. Based on information I have gathered from the SSDI, 1930 Census, and the internet "white pages", I have a multitude of letters sent out to people who may know the veteran I am searching for. With some names like Smith, Williams, etc., sending out letters is practically impossible. I have now moved on to include posting messages to hopefully get some info directly from veterans or their family or someone who may know the veterans and their families. The Army Records Center in St Louis may be of some small degree of help in finding hometowns as a starting point. NARA records, so far, are not a great deal of help since they primarily deal with causality records from WWII as is evident from the National World War II Memorial web-site Registry. I will be looking at the NARA site more since I've only begun to explore it. Any hints on how to best look for what I need will be great. Let me give a little background: I started my search for men of the 561st FA Bn with a roster of names and in some rare cases, hometowns of some of the men at the times of their entry into the Army. That, of course, was about 60 years ago, and in most cases, things change a lot in 60 years. I also started with a list of men KIA in the battalion, so all the men I am searching for survived the war. I've used the SSDI and 1930 Census extensively, which in a small number of cases has directed me to the living veteran or a descendant or family member of a deceased veteran. My search goes on for the other men of the 561st. The men in the battalion, of which there were about 500, came from nearly every state in the country, and that further complicates my search. My real interest is where the men are now or where their descendants or families are now. The 561st FA Bn has an informal association, and an annual reunion; thus this work to find living WWII veterans of the unit, or their descendants and family. Currently, there is no 561st FA Bn web page.

Surnames: Helton, Goins, Wagner, Cooper Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/IMi.2ACEB/877.883.883.2 Message Board Post: Hello to you. I am a Helton also. My gggrandfather was George Washington Helton. He was married several times. I have traced him in the census back as far as 1860, married to Eliza Goins. They moved from KY to Illinois (then married to Mary A.)and then to Braggodocio, MO, (Then married to Sarah). My ggrandfather, (George's son) was Walker Helton, born 1868, who married Rachael Cooper, in MO. They had my grandfather, Edward Helton Sr in 1897. I think your William would be Walker's older stepbrother, because George Washington Helton was their father, and William and Walker are both listed on the same census that I found. On the census I have found William is listed as being born in 1853 in KY. It also gives a son James born in 1856 in Illinois. Did you know what your George Washington's wifes name is? The George Washington Helton in my family did indeed have Cherokee blood. If any of this sounds familiar to you please write back. I am excited to see if our families match up!!! Hope to hear from you either way! Thanks, Jeannie Helton
