John Wooldridge

Notes:

Lieutenant-Colonel, Lincoln County, Georgia Militia, 1797. He was the father of one son, William, and six daughters. (McIntosh, HISTORY OF ELBERT COUNTY)

John married Martha "Patsy" Ellington about 1803 in Abbeville County, South Carolina. Martha (daughter of Jeremiah H. Ellington and Frances "Fanny" Jones) was born on 27 May 1783 in Amelia County, Virginia; died about 1825 in Abbeville County, South Carolina. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

Said to be the sister of ex Mayor A. P. Wooldridge of Austin, Texas. He lived at 3122 Wheeler Street, Austin. If she is related, she is more likely an Aunt or Cousin, as Alexander Penn Wooldridge, mayor of Austin, was born on 1847 in New Orleans, and therefore would be much younger than Elizabeth.

Elizabeth married Thompson Allen on 8 Feb 1821 in South Carolina. Thompson (son of Arva Allen and Polly Clarke) was born on 22 Dec 1802 in Abbeville County, South Carolina; died on 17 Dec 1870 in Sabine County, Texas. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

She was known by her middle name of Cornelia. Sometimes also shown as Cassie or Kennelia. At the time of the 1880 and 1900 Sabine County, Texas census, she lived alone.

Ludeshia married Annanias Oliver in 1840 in Sabine County, Texas. Annanias (son of Nancy (The Widow) Oliver) was born in 1822 in Tennessee; died before 1860. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

Said to have been born in the Old District 96 of South Carolina.

Per FIRST SETTLERS OF SABINE COUNTY he received 320 acres of land on March 4, 1844

It is currently not known where he was located in 1840. There is a John W. Allen listed on the Carroll Parish, Louisiana census at that time. However, that John Allen was born sometime between 1800 and 1810, and has two daughters over the age of 10. It is not currently known if they are the same man.

On the 1854 Scholastic Census, his children Jas T. and Martha (s/b Margaret Elizabeth) were shown as being enrolled

In YELLOWED PAGES: VOLUME XXIV, No. 1, Spring, 1994, page 43, a list of Sabine County Voter's registrations are shown. Information about J.W. Allen is shown as follows:

January 29, 1868: 478 J.W. Allen Pct. Mi3, Years in State--27, Years in County--27, Years in Pct--27, Native of South Carolina.

According to the book "Selected Tax Rolls of Shelby County, Texas 1837,1845,1855,1865,1875,1885," a J.W. Allen paid taxes in Shelby County in 1885.

In her notes, Kate Allen Tirado erroneously list her uncle as John T. Allen, and shows his place of death as Sabine County.

*Jane is the daughter of J.W. Allen by wife Caroline. Jane was born in December 1850, and the 1850 census was taken in October 1850. Therefore, Caroline would have been between 6 and 7 months pregnant at the time of the census. The 1860 census was taken in June, before Jane had reached her 10th birthday.

#The mother of Susan Allen is not known. It does not seem likely that she is the daughter of John's second wife, Margaret Harvey Allen, who had moved back home with their one year old daughter, Mary Allen. Did John have a daughter by a woman other than his then wife, perhaps leading to their separation? Or is Susan perhaps a niece or other family member? Or are Mary/Susan the same child, listed in both households?

His former wife, Margaret, and his daughter Mary are living in another household in 1860, as follows:

Myrtle Springs receives marker

An official Texas Historic Cemetery Marker was dedicated April 28, at Geneva Myrtle Springs Cemetery. The day was also the cemetery's annual homecoming......

The newly placed marker reads:
GENEVA MYRTLE SPRINGS CEMETERY

Situated North of the small, rural community of Geneva, the Geneva Myrtle Springs Cemetery serves as the primary resting place for pioneers, settlers of the area, and their descendants. Originally granted to Juan Ignatino Pifermo in 1794, the town of Geneva grew in the 1820s when pioneers began to settle there from the east. Geneva was first known as Shawnee village and later as Jimtown, after two early settlers of the are, Jim Halbert and Jim Willis. Originally surveyed for Daniel F. Renfro in 1838, the Geneva Myrtle Springs Cemetery is comprised of land granted by Levi T. ALLEN in 1879 for use as a church and cemetery. The Geneva Baptist Church was first located on the present day cemetery site, but later moved south of the area. In addition, a school was once located near the cemtery near Myrtle Springs, organized by William Thomas Arnold.

The general landscaping of the cemetery is traditional with brick, marble, sandstone, grantie, wood, and metal grave markers. The first marked grave is that of William J. JONES from 1888, but Bible records indicate that there were earlier unmarked graves, including that of Wiley William CROW (1845-1877). Among the many pioneer families interred at this cemetery, there are veterans of the Civil War, including Wiley CROW, Seth Marion LAYFIELD (1833-1906), and James T. MEADOR (1845-1933), as well as veterans of World War I, World War II, the Korean War, and the Iraq War. Burials for members of the fraternal organizations such as Woodmen of the World are present. Today, the Geneva Myrtle Springs Cemetery Association maintains and cares for the cemtery, while also serving the community of Geneva. Historic Texas Cemetery -2010.

Levi married Talitha Halbert on 23 Dec 1857 in Sabine County, Texas. Talitha was born on 15 Jun 1832 in Alabama; died on 8 Jun 1905; was buried in Oak Hill Cemetery, Lampasas County, Texas. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Levi married Jane C. Jones on 22 Nov 1905 in Sabine County, Texas. Jane was born on 11 Nov 1850 in Georgia; died on 11 May 1924 in Sabine County, Texas; was buried in Myrtle Springs Cemetery, Geneva, Sabine County, Texas. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

Enrolled in the District 10 School in Sabine County in 1854. In a biography of his family, written by his daughter Katherine Allen Tirado, it was noted that he "was about 8 years old (when his mother died) and he had a step-mother [Jane Russell Payne] that was very severe and the loss of their mother was a great sorrow to them."

A veteren of the Civil War, per "Citizen Soldiers of Sabine County, Texas" by Robert Cecil McDaniel. His tombstone is inscribed Miss Pvt Co F 11 Regt Tx Inf CSA

In the Affidavit of Mrs. C. D. Gooch, she noted that W. W. Allen lived in Lampasas County, Texas as of 1910. Other sources list him dying circa 1900. He actually died in 1914.

Sally had notes from her her aunt Kate Mellon Allen, who married a Tirado. Kate indicated that William Washington Allen was born at the home of his parents, Thompson and Elizabeth Allen, in Noxba, Mississippi.

(Medical):yDNA results

A direct male descendant of William Washington Allen's, born with the Allen surname, volunteered to submit a yDNA sample to FamilyTreeDNA.com.

His kit number, in the name of William Allen, is 237184.

The results showed that he was in the R1b1a2a1a1b haplogroup.

He was a 37 marker match to the following :

Samual Doyle Allen Jr (Ancestor Ephraim P. Allen, b. 1820 North Carolina)
Ronald Lee Allen (Ancestor Edmond Allen)
Henry Walton Allen (Ancestor not indicated)
Jerome Brady (Ancestor Richard Brady b. ca. 1805 Co. Caven or Claire, Ireland)
Williams Adams (Ancestor William Adams b. 1816)

Bill Adams emailed the following about his "Adams" lineage: "I can trace my lineage back to William Adams born in Mecklenburg, VA in 1816 or 1820. I know his mother was Sarah/Sally "Adams". (And I think he may have had brothers Alfred and James). I cannot determine who his father was. His grandfather appears to be James Adams who fought in the Revolution. Sarah/Sally having a last name of "Adams" is weird.

Due to the exact match between us, I am wondering whether Sarah/Sally actually had a husband named "Allen" who died or something. Maybe Sarah/Sally went to live with her "Adams" dad for this or some other reason and the kids were raised with an Adams last name. I sayy this because it seems weird to me that Sarah/Sally's husband would also be the same last name of "Adams".

You show your earliest ancestor being 1820, but I do know that the "Adams" in Mecklenburg lived on "Allen's" creek. Also, one of them married an "Allen" (maybe it was William, I can't remember for sure.) I know there were "Allens" living in close proximity to the "Adams" in Mecklenburg, VA."

William married Amanda Halbert about 1858 in Sabine County, Texas. Amanda (daughter of Joel Halbert and Tabitha Elizabeth Cox) was born about 1841 in Texas; and died. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

William married Elizabeth Rebecca Maund on 21 Apr 1870 in Milam, Sabine County, Texas. Elizabeth (daughter of William Wallace Maund and Caroline Young) was born on 30 Nov 1845 in Georgia; died on 15 Sep 1929 in Temple, Bell County, Texas; was buried in Oak Hill Cemetery, Lampasas County, Texas. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

Enrolled in the District 10 School in Sabine County in 1854.

Mary married William Washington "Dick" Halbert, Sr. on 9 Sep 1857 in Sabine County, Texas. William (son of Joel Halbert and Tabitha Elizabeth Cox) was born on 17 Jul 1837 in Milam, Sabine County, Texas; died on 12 Jan 1926 in Milam, Sabine County, Texas; was buried in Halbert Cemetery (Joel Halbert Cemetery / Fox Hill Cemetery), Milam, Sabine County, Texas. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

Enrolled in the District 10 School in Sabine County in 1854. Sharon Speights Varney quotes Virgie Collier Speights as writing that when Jerusha changed religions, joining the Campbellites (forerunner of the Church of Christ), whe was denounced by family and friends as "a heathen" and "no longer a Christian."

Jerusha married Green William Speights in Nov 1865 in Sabine County, Texas. Green (son of William Myrick Speights and Rebecca Hopkins) was born on 11 Jul 1839 in Mississippi; died on 23 Oct 1922 in Texas; was buried in Speights Cemetery, Sabine County, Texas. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

Was not enrolled in school in 1854 per the school census, though his older sisters Jerusha and Mary were enrolled.

Family/Spouse: Mary E. Dorsey. Mary (daughter of James H. Dorsey and Lucinda Reeves) was born about 1846 in Alabama; and died. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Margaret married William Morrison Fullen about 1868 in Sabine County, Texas. William (son of James C. Fullen and Rebecca Bal(L)\(Dwin)) was born on 16 Sep 1844 in County Of Sabine, Republic Of Texas; died on 28 Jul 1926 in Hemphill, Sabine County, Texas; was buried in Gravel Hill Cemetery, Sabine County, Texas. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

Her middle initial is shown sometimes as C and sometimes as K. It is not known what her actual middle name was.

Nina Fuller always said that her grandmother, Jane (Allen) Fullen was "half Indian." It has not been proved if this is true, or merely a legend. The name ALLEN appears to be of common use among the Cherokees, and perhaps this is where either the actual Indian blood, or legend of Indian blood, came from. The mtDNA of a child of Nina Fuller, a direct female descendant of Jane, was classified as H. This is the most common mtDNA in Europe, and not one associated with Native American lineage. If Jane was part Indian, it was through her father's family, and not in her direct maternal line.

There is a photo of Jane Fullen, presumably taken shortly before her death in 1926, in a black silk bonnet. This bonnet was given by Jane to her granddaughter Nina (Fuller) McLemore. Nina's daughter, Evon Tisdale gave the bonnet to Melinda (McLemore) Strong.

(Research):A photo of her headstone on Find A Grave appears to be incorrect in listing her birthday as 5 December 1849. Blanche Finley Toole showed this instead as 5 December 1850, supported by census records below:

*Jane is the daughter of J.W. Allen by wife Caroline. Jane was born in December 1850, and the 1850 census was taken in October 1850. Therefore, Caroline would have been between 6 and 7 months pregnant at the time of the census. The 1860 census was taken in June, before Jane had reached her 10th birthday.

#The mother of Susan Allen is not known. It does not seem likely that she is the daughter of John's second wife, Margaret Harvey Allen, who had moved back home with their one year old daughter, Mary Allen. Did John have a daughter by a woman other than his then wife, perhaps leading to their separation? Or is Susan perhaps a niece or other family member? Or are Mary/Susan the same child, listed in both households?

Notes:

His younger half-sister, Kate Allen Tirado, writes that he died of complications of pneumonia, compounded by his doctors accidentially poisoning him. She wrote "he was a beautiful young man and so good and true, he died singing "Jesus Lover of My Soul, Let Me to Thy Bosom Fly." Before dying, he regained consciousnes and told his father and loved ones to meet him in Heavan.

Notes:

Could she be the mother of Frankie Sims? In her biography of the William Washington Allen family, Katherine Allen Tirado, a younger half sister of Abbie Tabitha Allen, writes that "Little Frankie Sims died March 12, 1884 age 4 years old. He was a little curly head darling, the most precious little boy. Nephew of Frank D. Allen." Abbie would have been old enough to have a son born in 1880, none of her younger half sisters would have been. Also, Frank and Abbie were the only two known children born to William Washington Allen and his first wife, Amanda Halbert.

Notes:

His sister, Kate Allen Tirado wrote that he was not quite five years old when he died. "He was considered a perfect child, so good that the neighbors would tell my mother he was not for this world. At 4 he would ride with his Uncle Levi to Church and it was many miles and he didn't eat a bit while there; and would sit in the chair and bow his head as though a Man. He was very religious so young. And in the yard he would pick up every nail and save, he was so smart. He died in a few days from conjestion. Had three doctors with him. He would pull his sister in a little red wagon."
