However, I have become obsessed with tracing my grandmother 's Allen ancestry back to Virginia. I am learning a lot about Virginia history but I am drowning in Allens! I don't know how I will ever sort it all out.
An interesting note to my niece, Leah... I am very close to connecting our family to both Daniel Boone and Jack Jouett. Our family definitely ran in the same circles with those two men, in Virginia and in Kentucky.
Jack Jouett's daughter married an Allen, possibly one of our distant cousins.
