I, too, am looking for an ALLEN BRUCE, b. ca. 1820, d. 1859, probably in Hopkins/Webster County, Kentucky. He married 30 Dec 1841 in Hopkins Co., KY to one Pernecia PRICE, b. ca. 1822 Hopkins Co., KY. She was the daughter of James PRICE and Mary Levina "Viny" EARLY. Allen Bruce and Pernecia Price had the following children: James Thomas, b. 1845; Amanda Melvina, b. ca. 1848 (my ggrandmother); Sarah E., b. 1851; Fleming b. 1853; William b. 1855; Harriet b. 1856; and George b. 1857. I have not been able to find anything as to the parentage of Allen Bruce. Some suggestions have been that his father may have been a Cader/Cador Bruce, but have not been able to find anything on that. I am not sure of the birth place of Allen Bruce. Since he married and died in the Hopkins/Webster Co., area of Kentucky, which is in the northwestern part of Kentucky just south of the state of Indiana. Does anyone have anything at all on this Allen Bruce that might give me some idea as to where else to look for him and his parentage? I will be willing to share what information I do have on some of the descendants of Allen and Pernecia. Thank you all for reading this post.
