He was united in marriage with Eva Richards of Warsaw township at the bride's home on September 23, 1885. To this union one child was born, Nellie, Mrs. Willis Crawford, who with his widow survives him. He is also survived by two brothers, Charles Allen, of Rimersburg and Chester Allen, of Brookville. Mr. Allen was a member of the Presbyterian Church at this place. He was a man who made friends and kept them. Always cheerful he had a happy greeting for every one. He will be missed by a large circle of friends. Death is sad at any time but at the holiday time is especially so, and the family have the sincere sympathy of their friends in this bereavement.
