There is no primary source record that names the parents of Allen Hemingway. His mother Lucretia is identified as Lucretia Smith in the 1850, 1860 and 1870 census records. The will of Jacob Hemingway dated 1837 identifies his daughter Lucretia and grandson Allen Himingway. There are several internet sites that incorrectly identify Jacob Street Hemingway, the uncle of Allen, as his father.
