I've been told we came from Ireland or Scottland.

The documented info unfortunately stops at Wyatt C. I do know he was born and migrated from Brunswick Co. Va. . Early 1800 Virginia census of that area has a Wyatt Allen as the head of the house hold. Wyatt C was not born or a baby at this time. Brunswick Co. Va. married records has a Wyatt Allen married to Nancy Tarver in 1805. Nancy’s father was Andrew Tarver and her mother’s maiden name was Ann Young. From what I put together they had three children that I know of.
Robert Lunsford, Wyatt Carter and Andrew Young Allen. I need to verify this, but I recall on the same census a William and John Allen. My thought is William may be Wyatt Carters grand father because he named one of his sons William. It’s probably a stretch but some times it’s all you have to go by. He also named a son Robert and a daughter Ann.
I believe Wyatt and Nancy moved the Twiggs Co. Georgia and Wyatt C and Andrew moves to north florida. By 1850 Andrew was living in Lake city and Wyatt C purchased land outside of Lulu, Fl. The same property is still in the family today. I’m related to Wyatt through his son Allison Hamilton Allen. This is all I have but your inquiry has inspired me to continue my research.

Mr. Allen,

You say your Allen's are from Suwannee County.
Mine also come from Suwannee County.
Miles his son John M, his son Williamson A, his son
my grandfather Ira. All lived between Bradford and Taylor
Counties Florida.

If any of this sound familiar please let me know. I've been looking for
the rest of John's siblings as well as any info on Miles. Miles is from Al.

Thnks for you time

My line comes from Lulu, Florida (Columbia County). My GG Grandfather Wyatt Carter Allen migrated to Fl with his brother Andrew Y Allen from VA. Both had a lot of children who could have settle in Bradford area. My suggestion would be to search the Ancestry World Tree with your relatives names. There could be connection. Let me know.

I know the bar you are referring too. I don’t know if we are related. If she is an Allen, what line is he from?

The last time I was in Lulu, it was being converted to a general store..

She was an Allen, her family was originally from Jasper,
and then ended up in Lulu. She passed away this past May.
Her father was Williamson Allen, his father was a John M.
and John's father was Miles Allen. Williamson's son (my grandfather) Ira lived and died in Starke (Bradford County).
But the Allen's started out in McAlpin and Jasper.

Who knows there might be a connection. Trying to locate
siblings for Williamson, John. I'm at a brick wall!!

Thanks for your time
An Allen Grandchild
