David,
John Allen is believed to have died before 1860 probably in either Cherokee or DeKalb Counties, Alabama.
He was born in 1780 in Virginia. By 1830 he was in Cass Co., GA. He moved his family from GA to TN and then on to Cherokee Co., AL. His son John K. Allen moved to DeKalb County, Alabama between 1850 and 1860 (see page 44 1860 US Census, DeKalb Co., AL) and apparently at least Lydia accompanied his family. Lydia died there in April 1860. Some of this family moved on to Jackson Co., Al.
I am interested in the descendants of Alfred B. Allen and any photos that you care to share. My wife descends from John K. Allen, son of John and Lydia.
