Helen was the oldest child of Dr. David and Augusta Mallory Brockman. Her father had been practicing medicine in Marengo, Iowa for 5 years when she was born. Two more children were born to the family while they were living in Marengo.
When Helen was 9 years old, the family moved to Ottumwa, Iowa in Wapello County in 1892, where her father would help to establish the first City Hospital. Two more daughters were added to the family after the move to Ottumwa.
Helen's maternal grandparents moved into the house next door and there was an enclosed walkway between the houses so that family members could go back and forth in any kind of weather.
Helen graduated from Ottumwa High School and attended the State University of Iowa (her father's alma mater). Helen was 25 years old when her mother died in 1908. After her father remarried in 1910, she took over the care of her younger siblings.
In 1920 she was living in Mason City, Iowa and working as a technician in a doctor's office. By 1930 she had moved to Georgia to join two of her sisters and brother-in-law on their peach farm.
Helen moved to a retirement home in Escondido, California to be close to her Mallory cousins in 1964. She died there in October of that year and was brought back to Ottumwa to be buried with the rest of her family.
