"155. William Allen came to Medfield, and settled on the west side, about 1668. He has sometimes been called the son of James; but there is no evidence that this was the fact, and many things quite positively indicate the contrary. He married in 1668 Elizabeth Twichell, daughter of Benjamin of Dorchester, who had settled at the 'Farms.' Elizabeth died in 1717; and he married, second, Abiel Barber (25), probably. He died in 1738, 'aged according to the best accounts upwards of 90 years,' as the Medway records state."
