Four sons and one daughter married and lived near the original homestead. The seventh child, James Albert Amacker married Lydia Tate and settled in Poplarville, Mississippi. The sixth child, Nathaniel Amacker settled near the old family home. His family records were copied from his Bible by Edgar A. Bassett of Los Angeles, California.

The Bible was printed by the American Bible Society, New York, MDCCCXVI. Notes are copied below: Mrs. Josephine Swift Donelson, of 3965 Sycamore St. Baton Rouge La. wrote and asked me to copy the old family records of Douglas Allen, from his old Bible, which was left in our care by Ursel Allen Cassity, (youngest sister of John H. Allen, Deceased) I suppose it is much over 100 years old, as Douglas Allen was first married to Anna Alison, in 1819, then again to Mrs, Azubah Hart, in 1863, who was the mother of Laura Hart Swift, mother of Josephine. As the two leaves of the old Bible containing the family records were loose, I just removed and sent them to Josephine, instead of copying them. So am leaving this explanation in the Bible for future generations. Signed -- Elsie Chambers Allen, wife of John H. Allen, son of Milton Harvey Allen, son of, Douglas Allen. 2814 61st. Des Moines, Iowa. Jan. 22, 1951 The old Bible was sent to me in just a few weeks later, as her daughter wanted me to have it, as she had no one to leave it to, that would be interested enough in it, to value it. I am trying to figure out the person or persons that I will leave it to. The coming generations don't seem to be interested in the past any more, but here is this record, Page 78. and this Grandfather of mine was a wonderful person, and his past should be recorded. He was over six feet tall, and had red hair, and was never idle a minute, was a great Churchman, and a good man. What more can you say, "A GOOD MAN". /s/ Josephine Swift Donelson 2965 Sycamore St., Baton Rouge, La. Douglas Allen, son of Joseph and Frances Allen, was born in Virginia October 29, 1799, and in 1819 was married to Anna Alison, by whom he had eleven children, four of whom died in early childhood. (These 4 children died within a weeks time of each other, of some mysterious. illness). They moved to Indiana in 1837, to Davis County, Iowa in 1844, thence to Lucas County in 1849. Here Anna Allen died, Jan. 4th, 1863. He and his first wife were charter members of the La Grange, Iowa Cumberland Presbyterian Church, being among the very earliest settlers of the county, was one of the first elders of that congregation. He was blind some years before his death. Was buried in the La Grange Cemetery having donated the land for this burying ground, some years before.
