[1] Allen Twp. was formed in 1852 from parts of Fallowfield and East Pike Run Townships. Crumrine (pg. 645) states: “From the assessment-roll of 1788 for Fallowfield are taken the following names of persons taxable in that township, and resident in that part of it which is now included in Allen, viz: Joseph Allen, Eli Allen, John Allen, Joseph Chester, Lawrence Crow, Samuel Dixon, Joshua Dixon, Henry Dixon, Edward Earl, Nathan Ellis, James Ellis, Jesse Ellis, Hezekiah Ellis, David England, John Nixon, John Sprowls, John Finney, William Jackman, John Justice, Jeremiah Riggs, William Riggs, Edmund Riggs, Clement Riggs, Henry Speers.”

[2] According to Crumrine (pg. 645-7), Thomas Stockdale, whose family were English Quakers, purchased 200 acres of this tract in 1800 and 1801. Joseph and Deborah (HILL) ALLEN were in this area far earlier as they first received a patent for “Allenton” on the Monongahela River from Thomas and John Penn on 22 Dec 1774.

[3] Crumrine (pg. 645) says Lawrence and John CROW were brothers who settled on adjoining tracts which adjoined “William Jackman, Joseph Allen, William Howe, and Joshua Dixon. The two brothers lived here on these farms and died before 1796, as in that year the lands of William Howe are mentioned as ‘adjoining the lands of the heirs of Lawrence and John Crow and others.’”
