There are no GRIMES/ ALLEN in the NCGS quarterly. However, we have all/ most of the books on Bladen County. Had you contacted Dee for any info on these Bladen books. If not I would be glad to do a little look up but I would need more specific names of these families. There must be 100 Allen's in a couple books.
