8. | John Wooldridge Allen was born on 24 Apr 1823 in South Carolina (son of Thompson Allen and Elizabeth Wooldridge); died on 10 Jan 1896 in Patroon, Shelby County, Texas; was buried in Allen Family Cemetery, Patroon, Shelby County, Texas. 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:

*Esther McGrew Hardin in San Antonio notes that this is a name often used in the Odom and Means family (associated with the Blackburn and McGrew families of Sabine County). John and Frances Allen were living only two households away from M. Blackburn (Martha Cole Blackburn), a 72 year old Widow (of Alexander Blackburn, brother of Eliz. Blackburn) born in South Carolina and living with the family of J.N. and Susan Bailey.
