Was the son of David and Susanna White Allen who came from Scotland in 1740.

After about three weeks illness, at his dwelling House in Union Township, on Friday the 17th inst. Mr. George Allen, in the 53rd year of his age: in him were combined all those qualities that may be justly said to dignify human nature: The kind affectionate husband, the fond and indulgent Father, the disinterested and generous friend, and the obliging neighbor, were distinguishing traits in his character.

He was a friend to the distressed, a distinguished lover of his County, and an honest man. He died universally regretted, by all who knew him; his mortal remains were committed to the ground on the 19th, but we rejoice, that there is abundant reason to believe, that his soul is reclining on the Bosom of eternal bliss.
