Biography

Allen Burgin was the son of Thomas Burgin and Lucinda (Lucy) Deatherage

Some records family pedigrees place Allen's birth around 1793, but his parents were not married until 1789, so his date of birth is most likely 1789 to 1790. No sources have been found to firmly establish when he was born.

On 12 November 1825, Allen Burgin married Nancy Hind in Fayette, Kentucky. Nancy's father's name was Samuel Hind. ^[1]

In 1830 Allen is enumerated living in the Western Division of Madison County, Kentucky ^[2]

It is possible that his wife Nancy died before 1839 due to a marriage record existing of Allen marrying Emily L. Parker on 28 March 1839 in Harrison County, Kentucky. Some family pedigrees list her name as Emily Hinds but no sources found to back this theory up. ^[3][4]

In the 1840 U.S. Census Allen is enumerated living in the Western Division of Madison County, Kentucky. ^[5]

In the 1850 U.S. Census Allen is living in District 2 of Madison County, Kentucky. Allen was enumerated in this census as having been born in 1794 in Madison, Kentucky. 1794 birth year is most likely incorrect due to the documented marriage date of his parents. Allen is a farmer with a real estate value of $4560. ^[6]

In the 1860 U.S. Census Allen is living in the Western Subdivision of Madison County, Kentucky; specifically the White Hall post office area. Allen once again is enumerated as having been born in 1794 in Kentucky. Allen is a farmer and stated that his real estate value is $5700 and that his personal estate value is $8600. ^[7]

Allen is enumerated as owning 10 slaves in the 1860 U.S. Federal Census - Slave Schedule. ^[8]

The last official record Allen is listed in is the 1864 U.S. IRS Tax Assessment List, 1862-1918. ^[9]
