"Allen, Mrs. Lancy
d. at the home of Jerome Shamp, of Lincoln, NE.

Family Bible and records prove that Alancy Smith Allen was born on 13 Jan 1799. She died seven days after her 88th birthday. The newspaper is incorrect.
Jane Wallingford was wife to Jerome Shamp, daughter of Eliza Allen Wallingford, and therefore, granddaughter of Alancy Ellen Smith Allen.
