There is a good
deal of debate about this facts of this family. Even though we
have several documents that seem to lay out a clear lineage
what I present here are the few facts that have been the basis
for the research of others. Much of this comes from documents
that have been recorded in the William and Mary Quarterly
of vol. 22 (1913). Data is also to be found in the
Register of St. Peter's Parish, New Kent Co., Va.; Henry T.
Allen, "Allen," Register of the Kentucky Historical Society 28
(1930), pp. 71-88; Norma Carter Miller and George Lane Miller,
Allens of the Southern States (Baltimore, MD: Gateway
Press, 1989), p. 10; and in Boddie, Historical Southern
Families, vol. III. See also, Mrs. William Breckenridge
Ardery, "Allen Family," from the series Early Bourbon
Families published in a Bourbon Co., KY, newspaper,
1945.
