• Name	Douglass Allen
  Born	5 Apr 1807	New York
  Gender	Male
  Died	3 Sep 1850	Armada County, Michigan
  Notes	A Brief Allen Family History Douglass and Phoebe Conger came to Michigan from Otsego, New York accompanied by his brother. When near Monroe, Michigan the brother and family went south to Ohio. While Douglass and his family came on into Michigan and settled on a farm in Armada Twp, Macomb Co. Michigan. Most of their children were born there. Douglass died without ever havi heard from his brother again. Hezeakiah the second eldest son, while still in his teens, took over the burden of caring for the mother and younger children. After the children were out on their own, the old farm was broken up and Phoebe went to live with her daughter Harriet at the Sweets Hotel at Sweets Corner and there she passed away at the age of 78 years and 11 month Taken as a whole the family was strong and robust, tall of stature, and light complexioned. They were ready to lend a hand to anyone in need, were strictly temperate and always wanted to see fair play. How excludingly grateful we of this generation should be to have such wonderful memories of these loved ones to look upon and may each succeeding generation grow to be better, more capable and more useful in this God's great family on earth. Douglass and Phoebe had 10 children: (Roy) Roswell; Sylvester D.; Hezekiah; Jesse; Alexander C.; Harriet F.; Jesse C.; Darius; Phoebe M. and Clarissa.
