Need help finding 2nd great grandpa Allen

Question

I think his name was Westly or Wesley

Comments

There were many men named Westly Allen as well as Wesley Allen. The 20 of each may just be the tip of the iceberg. Can you provide any information to narrow down the search, such as what country, county and city was he born in, married in and death location? What year was he born, married, when did he die? Name of wife could help too.
