The family lore says that 4 Heltonbrothers started for California from the Carolinas (where Adam C.Helton was born). The trip proved to be very difficult. Some sortof fight took place where one brother was killed and another gravelyinjured. The other two brothers continued on the trip and settled inIndiana. The Cherokee took in the injured brother and nursed him tohealth and he stayed with them and married a Cherokee woman. Thisstory, told by Ezra Helton said that Adam C. Helton was the one whomarried the Cherokee woman. Adam we know settled in Indiana with hiswife Polly Starnes Helton. Polly was an herbalist doctor. It couldbe that the story is really about another generation, since Adam’sfather (Arnold) and Uncle (Henry) are known to have made the journey. Perhaps they were the uninjured brothers.
Note: at thetime Arnold was born there was no Tennessee and it was considered NC. What is listed is the current location in TN where he was born.
