About The Allen and Related Family Tree
Please sign in to see more.
This web site is dedicated to sharing the ongoing research on our Allen  (password),Boyns, Davies and Hamblet(t) lines, with a few others thrown in. When  I began my internet research back in 1999 (I had been doing research the old  fashoned way since I was about 12), I was driven by the desire to find my  great grandmother, Caroline Hannah Hamblet Boyns Allen Hodge. No one knew much about  her because she had left England and her family in about 1908. Well, I found her  and even have pictures!

During my search, I have been very fortunate to come in contact with several  English cousins and they have helped immensley with providing information that  eventualy lead me to Caroline Hannah Hamblet Boyns (my ggrandmother), Or Kitty as she  was known by her family.  In addition to finding Kitty I have also been fortunate  enough to have contact with descendants of each of Hannah Hamblet and George Davies 3  children, Joseph Hamblet Jr., Sarah Maria Hamblet Davies and Thomas Hamblet David  Davies. Hannah was the oldest daughter of Joseph Hamblet Sr. brick maker  extaordinair! I have also had contact from cousins descended from the children of  Philip Hamblet and is wife Sarah (parents of Joseph) as well as other lines that we  have not yet been able to difinativly nail down a connection to, but know it is  there. There is now a HAMBLET(T) surname mailing list on the Rootsweb site that I  recommend strongly. It is for all those researching this name and it's varients in  England.

I have also been able to trace the Allen line back one more  generation, to James Allen, Gardner b. 1774, Lichfield, Staffordshire,  England. Along with his wife Sarah and at least 3 children, there may be more  waiting to be found. It is said that the Allen's came from Scotland and that  they may have been part of the Clan McDonald. Research is yet to prove this  out, but hopefully it will be in the next few years. I have also recently come  in contact with a gentalman who is researching the Grigg surname and may have  found a family for Elizabeth Grigg who married James Allen, 4 Sep 1843. Elizabeth had  previously been married to John Millichip and they had two children before his death.  They were married in 1833 at St. Peter's, Aston Juxta, Brimingham. I have gotten a  copy of the marriage certificate for James Allen and Elizabeth Millichip and it   shows her as nee' Grigg! The Millichips became respected Solisitors (Lawyers  to us americans)in West Bromwich and are still there today I believe. I have also  been able to find Elizabeth's parents and siblings!

So as you can see the research into our roots is far from over. And what good  is research if it is not shared with others? After considering several ways of  sharing this information it became clear that the most efficent way was to  create a web site and continually up date it with new information as it is  found. Then each family member or interested party can access it at their  convieniance. When you do, please sign my Register Book. Comments are not  necessary (although they would help me improve the site), but your name and  address - IE: J. Smith, Deerborn, MI, USA would be hepful. That way I can have  some reference if I am contacted off line, which I welcome. Contributions are  always welcome as well!!!! So if you see something 
 here that is incorrect or that you have additional information on, PLEASE  contact me and I'll gladly add your info to what is already here!  So thanks for visiting! I hope you enjoy your walk through our past!
