          My great uncle, Harvey Miles Allen, was the man who married

your Nadine Haxton. He was the son of Miles Lorenzo Allen, Sr. and Leona 'Myrtle' Robison. And the grandson of Elijah Allen and Mary Catherine Greer. Elijah Allen was my g-grandfather. My maternal grand mother was Mary Catherine Allen who married Orin Joy Ward.

          I have a huge amount of data on this family "IF" you're

interesed, or you can use me as a reference and give my email address to those interested. Would you like specific dates and places of the above mentioned individuals?

             Yours genealogically,
