"The Allen line goes quite a long way back to the patriarch Benjamin Allen in Wales. According to some sources, he migrated to Spotsylvania County, Virginia in 1735. A couple of generations later, John Earl Allen (6.10) was born in Georgia on the 4th of March, 1805. In Jones County, Georgia on November 23, 1824 he married Lucy Thomas Anderson (6.11) and exactly nine months later on August 22, 1825, Andaline Susan Thomas Allen (6.5) was born. Some time between the birth of their new baby girl and 1827, the family moved to Lucy’s hometown of Pike County, Alabama. It was here that John and Lucy had six additional children in this order: Eason William (1827), Permilla H L (1829), Mary Ann (1832), Early Alexander (1830/5), Loduskie (1837) and Fadria Amanda (1841).[5]
