Description
"We are pleased to present to you a collection of Allen family genealogy. We have included primarily the families of William Allen and Caty Gearheart, Richard Allen and Edy Williams, George Allen and Cynthia Patton, James Allen and Nancy Louise Roberts, Samuel Patton Sr. and Elizabeth Allen, Isaac E. Allen and 1st wife Frances E. Pettit and 2nd wife Margaret Poplett ... Settlement of the Big Sandy, Licking and Kentucky River valleys was happening by 1800. By tracing the Allen generation on back before this date, we find that they lived in Virginia or North Carolina. By 1800 many of them began their westward movement into eastern Kentucky ... again we are reminded of the different 'sets' of Allens, such as the Floyd County set, the Breathitt County set, or the Morgan County-White Oak set; however it is believed but not fully proven that all the so-called 'sets' are really just branches of one family tree with a progenitor yet unproven"--Foreword, p. [4] in v. 1.
