General Notes: Husband - Robert Henry Allen

---

He was educated in the public schools of Beaver, Beaver County, Pennsylvania, but he was obliged to leave school at the early age of ten years and begin to support himself. His first position was on a farm and after a time he found employment in the livery business in Beaver, a position he retained for a period of three years. He then went to Green County, Iowa, where he worked on a cattle ranch for two years, and then returned to Beaver. His next field of industry was the Indian Territory, and he assisted in putting the railroad through from Arkansas City to Texas. The next eleven years were spent in California, where he was connected with the fruit growing industry and other harvest fields, after which he returned to Beaver in 1894. He was the owner of a beautiful house on Market street, and was an attendant at the Methodist Church. His fraternal affiliations were with Washington Lodge, Woodmen of the World. His wife was the owner of a fine business at No. 623 Third street, Beaver.
