• John Allen, Senior, gentleman, born about 1540, settled in Droitwich, Worcester, England, before 1571. He lived in St Mary Wytton, a parish which had become only a geographical designation, since it was at St Andrew's, that baptisms, marriages, and burials were recorded, although the registers are missing before 1571 and from 1588-1591. His burial occurred on 5 December 1630. His widow Margaret was buried 16 August 1643. And she might have been his second wife. He had no will, and the administration of his estate is no longer fully readable. His children recorded at St Andrew's:

1. John Allen (bapt. before 1570)
2. Elinor Allen (bapt. Oct 1574)
3. Phillip Allen (daughter bapt. 3 Oct 1575, buried 7 Jan 1578/9)

Arthur Allen was baptized on the 23rd day of October 1608, son of John Allen, gentleman, at St Andrew's, Droitwich, Worcester, England. Arthur came to Virginia in the early 1630s, and settled about 1640 in the part of James City County that would become Surry County, where he served as Justice from 1652 until his death, and served on the Lawnes Creek Parish vestry in 1660 and probably other years. He patented 200 acres of land near Lower Chippokes Creek in March 1649/50 for importing 4 persons, including Alice Tucker, who became his wife. The date of the grant does not indicate the date of marriage, as a person could file for a headright many years after paying their passage. He eventually accumulated 2,450 acres of land. He apparently engaged in the tobacco trade, as he was also listed as a merchant in Bristol, England, from 1655 until 1669. He died in Surry County between 15 May and June 1669.
