NOTE: This tree is a "work in progress". Many of the notes are incomplete and some links will not work correctly, especially when inside a Scrapbook. I still have much data to add and apologise to those contributors whose information has not yet been added. My sincere thanks to all.I have tried to verify as much information as possible but errors may exist or conflict with other sources. Individuals with uncertain details have a (See Notes) label attached to their name.
Any photos will be found in the individual's Scrapbook. Click the "ScrapBook" link in the left menu for a list. These allow only a limited amount of text so I will be adding feature pages containing more detailed notes, photos and links. These will appear at the right of the Scrapbook links.

Paul H. Allen, was said by his family to be the first postmaster of the settlement that became known as Allendale, SC. His family claim the town was named after him, although other reports say it was named after Joseph Warner Allen, an engineer from south Jersey who surveyed the route for the first railroad in the 1840's. Joseph lived with the Ackerman family at the old Fell house on Franklin Turnpike. The area was known locally as "The Turnpike" untill 1848 when the depot was officially named Allendale.
Paul and Joseph are not thought to be related.
Allendale Post Office was established 11 November 1869 with Smith Roswell as the first official Postmaster.

John spent most of his life on property inherited from his father near the village of Tarboro, SC, (about 5 miles SE of Garnett, SC.) as a planter and engaged in the Naval Stores business. John and Elizabeth are buried at Black Swamp Cemetery (Garnett, SC).
