The Warren Love Family Tree has his mother as Amey Lucas Thweatt (BIRTH 8 DEC 1765 Dinwiddie, Virginia, Colonial America; DEATH 24 JAN 1811 Andrews Home, Mecklenburg, Virginia).


Allen Thweatt Andrews lived with his father or in another home on the plantation during his last years and took care of him in his old age. A codicil to Varney's will contains a special bequest to "My son, Allen T. Andrews in consideration of attention to me by him.

Although Allen T. Andrews was given the whole tract on which the plantation buildings stood, together with the growing crops and equipment, all sons & daughters received money or chattels of equal value, in the will of Varney probated July 19 1847.

It seems probable that Martha Jane Oslin was his second wife. The U. S. Census Report of 1850 listed his age as 44 and her age at 22. The same report listed his son William Oslin Andrews as 15 years of age, a daughter Virginia, age 10, and son Varney 9.

Allen T. Andrews, with his family lived in the main house until his death in 1868. Descendants of that family still live in Mecklenburg County.
