I have hit an early dead end on the family line of my great-great grandparents who lived in New Orleans, LA.

Looking for any info on the father of Joseph E. Allen (b. abt 1860, d. 27 Dec 1909 married to Marie Isabella Alvarez) named John (from Ireland?) married to Mary Selina Henry from Mass.

Also, any info on Isabella Alvarez (b. 7 Mar 1868, d. 1955) and her ancestors (only have name for father...Pierre/Peter Alvarez married to Julia Pellane ?).

Any help is much appreciated!

Thanks,

Beth
