Betty, I don't see anywhere that your reasoning doesn't make sense. I think you must be right, Allen and Mary Polly would almost have to be Geo Boxley's parents. Especially with the given names of Boxley and Tinsley coming in as they do from the mothers. Not much else would seem reasonable. I have three Robert Allens in a row, the last two being born in 1860, and 1900. I still don't know when the first was born, but I'm suspecting around 1820. The Middle one is suspose to have been born in Izard Co. Ark in 1860. I find an Allen age 36 (so born 1814) in the 1850 Izard census, married to Rebecca. But that won't do because mine needs to be married to Isabelle Phillips. I guess I need to find an 1860 Ark census, to home in on this a bit. And I don't find it on line. I will have to go to the library and look it up. My dad, and three of his brothers are still living, Dad is 86, and still sharp. He remembers his grandparents, and where they were born. And Dad and one of his bros are quite clear about the names of their G grandparents, but no dates. They do both think my first Robert Allen (the one born about 1820) was born in TN. So I'm thinking there is another someone in there to get back to your Allen's uncle Robert, (John's bro). I've got a lot of census work to do! Are you in Van Zandt County? I'm at Cedar Creek Lake, near Tool, in Henderson Co. just south of Van Zandt. I was amazed to learn the graves of Geo Boxley, etc. are so close, and have been through so much hassle. It is so nice of you to have helped me so much. I really am grateful and thank you so much. Paul >Just have a minute. time for church.
