Surnames: Allison Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/hZ.2ADIB/1576.1 Message Board Post: I too am looking for Doug Allison. My Allison line goes back to Bedford county TN and according to the census, somewhere in NC - I do not know which county. In Bedfrod co. my earliest known relative is Thomas Barnet Allison (1830-1886) married to Mary E. Chapman.They were born in Tn but the census lists their parents as being born in NC.
