| Notes for Moses T Allen: [1966670.ged] "T" middle initial may be in error From a WFT contributer Volume 6, pre-1600 to present V706-01: Moses Allen was born in Virginia along with his wife Lucinda Trail. It is not known where they married but it is known that they immigrated to Tennessee before their children were born. The data in the United States census is unclear. It states in the 1850 Census that Lucinda was 32 years old this would put her birth date at about 1818. If this is true she had her first child named Thomas in 1832. Lucinda would then be 14 years old. Moses would have been about 20.Also in the census of 1850, Moses and Lucinda had 9 children they are as follows. Thomas 18, James 16, Sarah 14, Mary 12, Candis 10, William 7, Elizabeth F. 5, Lewis 3, and Edward 1.It is also stated that Moses was a Laborer and owned real estate with a value of 800 Dollars. His eldest son Thomas was a Blacksmith. His second son James was a Laborer like his father.Of the remaining children 5 attended school within the year of 1850.I assume this would include Sarah, Mary, Candis, William, and Elizebeth. In contradiction to the 1850 census is the census of 1860. Here it is stated that Lucinda is 45 years old. Come to think of it. She probably did age 13 years in one decade. She had 4 more children bringing the total to date of 13.Here it is stated that Moses was a farmer and had real estate holdings worth 3000 dollars and a value of personalestate worth 1500 dollars.By 1860the eldest children had moved on. Moses and Lucinda at this time do not show Thomas, James Sarah or Mary in their family group. However Mary is shown on another page with her being the head of house hold, her last name remaining Allen and having a son age 1 by the nameCyrus Allen. No value of real estate or personal estate was recorded.Moses and Lucinda were quite busy themself's this past decade. It seems that they loved the big family life because as the children grew and moved out. They were quickly replaced with bouncing bundles of joy, for Moses and Lucinda added to their humble abode with 4 more children during the 1850's. Nancy born about 1851, Susan A. born about1853, Martha V. born about 1855 and baby Joseph F. born about 1857. It is not clear yet how many children Moses and Lucinda did have. We must remember that child mortality during the mid 1800's was quite high. It is quite amazing how information is passed along and how it can change through the generations. While speaking with Aunt Grace, Susan Allen discovered that Moses may of had a previous marriage. As discovered while at the Michigan State Library in Lansing, Moses did have a previous marriage. His first wife's name was Fannie Kitchens. This changes the whole family of Moses Allen and his children. So let it be recorded as of this date September 24, 1994. Moses Allen married Fannie Kitchens and had five children. Their names were Thomas, James, Sarah, Mary and Candis. With the second marriage of Moses to Lucinda Jane Trail they had the following children. William, Elizabeth, Lewis, Edward, Nancy J., Susan A., Martha V., Joseph F. and Horace Greeley Allen. Now according to Aunt Grace, Moses also hadother children. Their names were Jane, Fletcher, Betty, and Robert. I think, and this is only speculation. Jane, was the middle name of Nancy J. and they are the same person. Fletcher was the middle name of Joseph F. and they are the same person. Betty is the nick name of Elizabeth and they, as well are the same person.Robert, He was an additional child born about 1862, and was 2 years older than Horace Greeley Allen, born December 3, 1864. Between the 1860 and 1870 Census, Martha V. either passed away or married, because she does not appear with the family in the 1870 census. On September 7, 1994. I have confirmed what Aunt Grace had said about another son of Moses. His name was Robert. Robert was born about 1862 and was 8 years old in the 1870 Census. Robert was found living with Neighbors not with his Paternal family. On page 196 of the SmithCounty 1870 Census. Robert is shown living with the Enoch family. Roberts parents appearAs Moses Allin, not the correctspelling "Allen." This is also the Census where Horace Finally appears. He is shown on line 17, age 5. Horace, who is my Great Grandfather was born December 3, 1864. During the high point of the Civil War. His full name was Horace Greely Allen.His father Moses, must have admired Horace Greeleyfor he gave this name "Horace Greeley" to his son. To better understand the thoughts and beliefs of Moses Allen, you must read about Horace Greeley. To name a child after such an important man, one would believe they shared political and ethical beliefs. Now accordingSarah Hampton of Oxford Mississippi,the parents of Moses were both born in Maryland. This may be true ofthe grandparents of Moses. My research shows that the parents of Moses were Archibald Allen and Sarah Booker. Archibald was born Circa 1784. Sarah Circa 1792. Another child born to Moses and Lucinda was Eula Allen, This name was given to me by a Mrs. Sally Boswell of Bowling Green Kentucky. Eula may have died or like her brother Robert, may have been living with another family at the time of the census. Please note, the above information is printed in sequence as it is found. It is sometimes confusing and should be read carefully. THE END ELI VICK'S STORE July 17th, 1845 -- December 15th, 1845 Moses Allen's name taken from the original ledger book, which is in the possession of Ed Organ, Nashville, TN, a direct descendant of Eli Vick. A copy is held by Dale Givan Cantrell, Liberty, TN. I have tried to copy these as accurately and exactly as they appear in the ledger. Most of these are "charges", and below each name is a list of the goods purchased. It was nearly impossible to list/decipher the items bought and I decided that the names were most important, as the 1840 census does not give as much information as we would wish. When a notation is given, i.e. (son of John), this is not listed in every charge, but occasionally. This store was located on Eli Vick's place, near Allen Bluff and Forks of Pike, DeKalb Co. TN. |
