Lewis Madison Allen b. 1828 GA
I am researching the ancestry of the following family and any help would be appreciated.
Lewis Madison ALLEN b. 24 Aug 1828 Georgia d. 1 Dec 1870 Pleasant Grove, Cherokee Co., TX; buried in Pleasant Grove Cemetery, Maydelle, Cherokee Co., TX; married 26 Feb 1864 (not in Cherokee Co., TX) to
Mary Frances KIRKPATRICK b. 13 Mar 1836 Georgia d. 6 May 1906 Cherokee Co., TX; buried in Pleasant Grove Cemetery, Maydelle, Cherokee Co., TX.
Lewis might be the one found in the 1850 Macon Co., AL Census at age 23 living with the William Gaides family. (Don't know who they are) That is the earliest I can find him.
He appears in the 1860 Cherokee Co., TX Census with his wife and two children, John Francis Monroe Allen age 3 and Anna Vellar Caroline Allen age 1. They had a child that died somewhere named Margaret Navadia Allen b. 8 Oct 1855 d. 2 Dec 1856. Would like to know where she was born/died and is buried.
I checked marriages in Cherokee County and they definately didn't marry there so they might have married in Alabama since I might have found him there in 1850 before he married in Feb of 1854.
He served during the civil war Co. I, 28th Texas Cavalry. He is in the 1870 Cherokee Co., Census also with his wife and children:
1. Margaret Navadia b. 8 Oct 1855 d. 2 Dec 1856.
2. John Francis Monroe Allen b. 22 Apr 1857 TX d. 16 Feb 1923 OK; m. Mary Ann Bales
3. Anna Vella Caroline Allen b. 2 Jan 1859 TX d. 20 Feb 1923 TX m. Henry E. Bineham
4. Lewis Kirkpatrick Allen b. 30 Dec 1861 TX d. 27 Apr 1947 TX m. Geneva "Jennie" Smith
5. Mary Elizabeth Allen b. 5 May 1863 TX d. 26 Apr 1944 TX m. Samuel Parker Harris
6. Laura Emma Allen b. 30 Jan 1866 TX d. 9 Apr 1939 TX m. Andrew Jackson Ellis (my ancestors)
7. Youba Florence (Youbie) Allen b. 25 Oct 1868 TX d. 22 Nov 1934 TX m. W.T. "Tom" Neal
8. James Madison Allen b. 21 Feb 1871 TX d. 23 May 1941 TX m. Laura Jane Smith
Would like to know the parents of Lewis Madison Allen and Mary Frances Kirkpatrick. I would also like any further info on the spouses of the children.
Thanks,
K A Taylor
