I too am somewhat confused. David's first wife died Dec 28 1834 so Louisa b. 1833 would have to be his first wife's child along with Mary W who was born Apr 27 1825.. My records show that David Allen's second wife was Eliza B. HUSTON, b. Feb 12 1806 in KY, m Aug 19, 1835 in Boone Co. KY, d. May 19 1881 in Scotland Co. MO. (My source for this was his military record, War of 1812). I only had two children listed, Volney and Strechley by his second wife so I'm pleased to add your information. In the 1820 Boone Co. Ky census report, it shows a Streakley (sp?) Allen as head of household and David also head of household. In David's household there was one male 25-44 years old, one female 0-10 yrs old and one female 16-25. In the 1830 census, Streshley is again listed as head of household, also David Allen. In both households there is a male ages, 30-50. Since this is too early to be David's son, I assumed this Streshley was a brother whom David later named his son after. What are your thoughts and do you think Louisa was possibly a daughter of David and Sybella instead of David and Eliza?
