Notes for DAVID ALLEN, JR.:
Mr. Allen died at his home near Broadwell, KY (eight miles from Cynthiana, near Cynthiana and Leesburg Turnpike) after a long illness. For several years he had been an invalid suffering from paralysis, ministered to by the loving hands of his numerous children and grand children. He was one of the pioneer citizens of KY. Born in 1805, he spent his long and useful life in the neighborhood, loved and respected by all. He was a honest man and an upright citizen. His funeral was at the family residence and conducted by Rev. W.W. Chamberlain.
By a singular coincidence the text selected, 1 Thessalonians 4, 13 had the following marked in the margin of his bible. "Used at mother's funeral by Rev. Merritt." In his remarks, the Rev. Chamberlain paid high tribute to the Christian character of the deceased whom he had known for 40 years. The Rev. J.T. Sharrard assisted in the funeral services and he contrasted the condition of society and Harrison County when Mr. Allen was born and when he died, drawing from it the superior advantages and added responsibilities of those he had left behind. He also mentioned that Mr. Allen had raised a family large enough to start a world, being just the number saved in the ark. The funeral procession to the Jacksonville Cemetery was a long one.
He was owner of 300 acres of good land and a member of the Methodist Church at Pleasant Green.
