George A. Allen, son of Franklin Allen and Olive Burdick Allen, was born in Alfred, June 29, 1858.

He was one of six children: Mrs. Clark Burdick, Mrs. H. E. Witter of Alfred; William H. Allen of Farina Ill.; and Miss Phalla Allen of Alfred; one brother Elbert Allen, passed on five years ago. George Allen spent his boyhood days in Alfred. He married Emma V. Potter of Alfred, October 16, 1880. To this union, one daughter, Elma S., now Mrs. Arlton Burdick, and one son, Lloyd J., were born. Mr. and Mrs. Allen made their home in Alfred with the exception of one year spent in California for Mrs. Allen's health, she passing on April 29, 1903, at Alfred.

After the death of his wife Mr. Allen resided in Canada, Maryland, Pennsylvania, Virginia, and New Jersey, returning to Alfred in April, 1925, in very poor health, where he lived with his son Lloyd at Purdy Creek and with his sister, Phalla Allen, and the last few days of his life were spent with his daughter, Mrs. Arlton Burdick in East Valley, where he suffered a shock on October 24, and passed away one week later.

Mr. Allen was baptized and united with the Seventh Day Baptist Church of Alfred, of which he remained a member to the time of his death. Funeral services were held at the Second Alfred church, November 2, conducted by Rev. E. D. Van Horn, and the body laid to rest in Alfred Rural Cemetery.
