On the 1930 census, Helena was listed as Mary H. Brownlee, age 6, granddaughter, also in the household of James and Laura Brownlee, along with their daughter, Vivian Grace Brownlee, age 13. Helena's Find-A-Grave.com memorial is annoted that her maiden name was Knapp. I cannot discover any further information about her biological parents or the circumstances of her birth. Her son, Johnie R. Grey, listed his mother's maiden name as Wisman on his Virginia marriage license application. I am guessing that the person who annotated her online memorial had some factual knowledge that is not publicly available. DLB 2025. She married Sgt. John Robert Roush, son of Sgt. Robert Sanderson Roush, Jr., and Elsie Marie Frambes, before April 1950; Helena was first married to Johnie W. Grey (1921-1945. He was killed in action in the Philippines during WW II.
