Hello Carley,

I gather this is your  Allen Line

ALLEN, Sarah Wife Married F 32 1829 Bakers Wife

I have not yet managed to find any connections to my line of Allen, But I am still looking and maybe
something will turn up. I will keep you posted if I come across anything.

Hi Kathy,

Thank you for your reply, and you are right, the family you mention sounds like ours.

Sarah Allen's maiden name was Walsh, and her parents were Danial Walsh, silk weaver and her mother was Susannah Smith, and she died aged 76 years in 1881.

The family of John Allen and Sarah Walsh was
Joshua born 1855
John born 1857
Henry born 1860
Mary born 1861
William born 1864
Clara born 1867
Elizabeth or liza Ann born 1870

When Sarah died in Australia in 1907 there was only Joshua aged 51, John aged 49, Henry 47 and Clara aged 40 still living.
I do not think Henry came to Australia.
Would love to hear from you if you find a connecrtion. Best wishes from Clara xx

Hi Clara
I have just found out that my grandmother had a brother named John that we didnt know existed, so im trying to see what  I can find out about him and to see if it could  be possible that its your John.
I will get back to you when I have found anything out.

Regards

Catherine
