Reported age at time of death was 35 years, so if accurate, evidently born about 1852 (however, 1870 census shows her to be 16 years, in which case she'd be born closer to 1854).
Burial record in the sexton's ledger book shows: A. E. ALLEN was born in Georgia, died aged 35 years of heart disease, and was buried 04 NOV 1887 in Section C, Lot 877, as a resident of Columbus, Georgia (so probably died there). The sexton was Abraham ODOM.

Hill ALLEN (13); Elijah ALLEN (twin, 10), at home; Ella C. ALLEN (twin, 10), at home; Clementine ALLEN (8); Ola Lee ALLEN (3); and Nancy HARPER (68), occupation "none."
A. E Sholes' 1878 city directory for Columbus, Georgia, p. 83, shows:
ALLEN, Annie, Miss, resides at 6 Broad Street
ALLEN, Benjamin, laborer, resides at 6 Broad Street
Unable to locate Ann Eliza or Benjamin Hill on the 1880 census, and they don't seem to be included in the Interstate Directory Company's 1884 city directory for Columbus, Georgia.

[Ann Eliza not included in 1888]
This grave is evidently not identifiably marked. On 15 MAR 1887, John W. JONES paid $25 (resident rate) for Lot 227 in Section C. Also reported to be in C-877 are: a child of John JONES, buried 08 MAR 1887 (aged 3 years); John W. JONES , buried 15 MAY 1892 (aged 50 years); and Benjamin Hill "Benj" ALLEN (22 FEB 1857--26 MAY 1899), marked. This marked grave is in Lot 227 of Section J in Dolores Autry's "Historic Linwood Cemetery" book (edited by Lea Dowd et al.), Volume 3. Autry also reports here two adult-sized brick ledgers and a child-sized brick ledger, none of which have any identifying markings. This grave is probably one of two adult-sized brick ledgers.
