Abigail was born in 1781. In the Genealogical and Family History of The Wyoming and Lackawanna Valleys Pennsylvania it states on page 358 she was born in Connecticut and was a close relative to Ethan Allen. Also her last name was spelled Allen. Which relative connects I have yet to find out. She passed away in 1861. Every single first born male after Abigail and Joseph has "Allen" as their middle name. I contacted the town in which she was "buried" and they in turn had a person who has lived there a long time and knows the cemetery call me and after talking to me checked it out. Neither Abigail or her husband Joseph are in the records for the cemetery and they could not find the gravestones. My father always said he was related to him.
