H. ALLEN was born at Dover, Wayne Co., Ind., July 21, 1838. While he was yet a small boy, his father removed to Rush County. Here he grew up, enjoying such opportunities for education as the country at that time afforded. After having acquired a fair education, he commenced the study of dental surgery at New Castle, Henry Co., Ind., under a gentleman by the name of Hamilton, and his brother. After having mastered his profession, he located in Anderson, Ind., and opened a dental office in 1862. After residing in Anderson for five years, he, in 1867, removed to Tipton, Ind., where he has continued in the practice of his profession ever since, with the exception of six years spent at Crawfordsville, Ind. Dr. Allen was married at Tipton, February 19, 1869, to Miss Melinda Lyons, whose death occurred during his residence at Crawfordsville. His family consists of two children, Willie E. and Grace May. The Doctor has an elegant office in the Overman Block, and is the possessor of a large and lucrative practice. His professional reputation is not confined to Tipton County, as he is regarded as one of the best dentists in the State. Additional Comments: Extracted from: COUNTIES OF HOWARD AND TIPTON, INDIANA.
