I show a Winifred HORNE marrying a WARD boy from Duplin, probably in Edgefield, since that was where she was from. However, I know the Robert ALLEN III family was real big just across the river in Augusta in the early 1800's.and they were from Hanover County, VA. They were tied in with a bunch of NC folks, though, mostly from Craven and that area. The MELTONS (from Orange County, NC), ANDERSONS, CALHOUNS, WALKERS and COLLINS were tied to this family. There was an earlier marriage of a John ALLEN to Sarah WOODSON (b. about 1700) and some of the WOODSONS and their relations came down into NC -- Granville and Wake to name a few. I think all of these families go back to Southside. The given name, Green, is definitely a VA name, usually. Hope this helps. John R.
