From Nevada Evening Journal December 19, 1918 (page 3)

Robert and Arthur Applegate left on Friday afternoon for Cherryville, Kan., where they accompanied the body of their cousin the late Rev. Helm, who died the night before. The mother and sister of the deceased are still at the Helm home south of this city, the sister ill and the mother assisting in her care and that of the widow of her son.

SUBMITTER'S NOTE: Rev. Rex Grant Helm was the son John Grant Helm and Carrie E. Applegate. Carrie Applegate was the sister of Marshall Morris Applegate (the father of the above mentioned Robert and Arthur Applegate) and, therefore, their cousin.

Rex Grant Helm apparently died at the home of his mother, Carrie (Applegate) Helm, south of Nevada, Story County, Iowa and was buried in Cherryvale, Montgomery County, Kansas.
