Gilbert Oliver Helphenstine was the son of Oliver and Matilde Sophia (Romero) Helphenstine, the grandson of Alfred H. and Mary A. (Royal) Helphenstine, the great-grandson of John William & Catherine (Cantonwine) Royal, and great-great grandson of Charles and Mary Magdalena (Scholl) Cantonwine.

Charles, the patriarch of the Cantonwine family, immigrated to America from Prussia in 1806, arriving in Philadelphia, Penn., aboard the ship Orlando. The ship's passenger list shows "Chr. Kuntentwine, single man." The name Kuntentwine later evolved to Cantonwine, and Charles appears to be the only surnamed Kuntentwine/Cantonwine to immigrate to America. Eight or so years after his arrival in Philadelphia, in about 1814, Charles married Mary Magdalena Scholl, daughter of Charles Jacob & Margaret (Fuhr) Scholl, in Bedford county, Pennsylvania.

Gilbert married Clara Maud Guymon January 3, 1925 in Conejos county, Colorado. She died in 1993. Gilbert died at the age of 30 of peritonitis.
