Hi Paula, This must be my Mary P. Actually, she went by Molly and not Polly as I previously typed. There is a Polly in my husbands family - hard to keep all this straight sometimes. Molly was b. Jun 2, 1854 and died May 24, 1906 and Hilltop would be the correct district (as far as I know). She is buried at Nanjemoy Baptist Church Cemetery. A. A. Allen is most likely Arcanna A. Allen otherwise known as Ann. According to Interment.net - this is a site that has free info on cemeteries in the entire world. Pisgah Methodist just happened to be on there when I was looking around last night. That's when I saw the name of John Francis Allen and remembered that Mollie's father was "Frank". Are you from Charles Co.? Since you are compiling a history of Pisgah, I figure there must be some sort of tie. Thanks for all your census info.

Well, it depends on when your Permelia was born really, but there was a Permelia Allen aged 5 in the 1860 household headed by Francis Allen (Francis Allen household, 1860 U.S. census, Charles County, Maryland, population schedule, Hill Top District, Pisgah Post Office, page 74, dwelling 590, family 586, microfilm M653 (Washington: National Archives), reel 473). In 1870 there is a household headed by A. A. Allen that includes an M. P. Allen, female, aged 14 and a J. F. Allen, male, aged 9. (A. A. Allen household, 1870 U.S. census, Charles County, Maryland, population schedule, 1st District, Pisgah Post Office, page 36, dwelling 475, family 483, microfilm M593 (Washington: National Archives), reel 584). The John Francis Allen who was buried in Pisgah Methodist Cemetery was born 23 July 1860 (John Francis Allen cemetery marker, Pisgah Methodist Cemetery, Pisgah, Charles County, Maryland; Paula L. Wiegand, 16 May 2003) I would love to hear more about you lines as I am compiling a history of Pisgah (my adopted home) and her people.
