For Josiah's year of death, I have "abt. 1816". I can't say for sure where I got that from, but it may have been from Benjamin Bunting f58905@knology.net. Josiah Allen was my GGGG Grandfather, as I am descended by way of his son, Robert A. "Major" Allen (1792-1876).

The will names Josiah's children and Clement's wife. I take that to mean that Josiah's wife was also deceased at the time. Does anyone know where and when Josiah died? The family moved to Pike Co. around 1822. From where?
