My name is Joseph McPike. In Heltonville, Indiana, our family owned a 600 acre farm and Indiana Limestone Mill. The stone is the best in the world..used in Empire State Building,Pentagon etc
IN THE CENTER IS "THE FAUBION CEMETARY", SMALL, BUT ON THE OFFICIAL MAP OF INDIANA POSTED IN BEDFORD INdiana POST OFFICE....THE TOWN IS NOT ON THAT MAP BUT FAUBION CEMETARY IS!!! (hELTONVILLE IS A TINY TOWN, Headstones date back to
1840 but it is overgrown and epitaphs washed away. FAUBIONS DID THE FARMING ON 640 ACRES FOR US. MANY FAUBIONS STILL LIVE IN HELTONVILLE INDIANA .the McPikes came from TENN and KY and land grants, the land related to McPike, Faubion, Chambers. When a child marriied in the 1800's they would get 160acres(quarter section) so over the years there were intermarriages etc McPike Faubions were related by marriage all over the ares and MANY STILL LIVE in the BEDFORD INDIANA AREA
