ALLEN
I am looking for a Jacob (Jake) Allen who
possibly lived in Bollinger County in the mid to late 1800's.
He moved to MO. with his brother John W. Allen and a couple of
sisters(one married a Keith and the other perhaps a Myers) along
with another brother(unknown?) from NC around 1850. John
settled in Washington County. Jacob Allen supposedly was
paralized in an accident and spent a great deal of his life in a
wheel chair. If anyone could help me it would be greatly
appreciated.
