Please note that the orginal data for this FAG memorial came from the 1942 cemetery reading by H. C. Bowen published as Gravestone Records of Lenawee County.
At the lot of Timothy Allen: "Artemas, son A. & L., d. Dec. 21, 1848 ae 30y 10m 21d

This is perhaps meant to read 3y 10m 21d
Note the parents A. & L. (probably Artemas and Lucinda)

The 1850 Census (FamilySearch.org) shows Artemas Allen age 49 living with wife Lucinda, age 38 and children
Harriet age 15
Ervin age 8
Hellen age 11

In 1850 Census the family is shown near the residence of David Brown, Physician. Dr. Brown is known to have lived in Medina Village.

There is a monument to an Artemas and Lucinda Allen in Branch County, Michigan--FAG memorial 7116595. That stone reads Artemas d. 1873, aged 73 and Lucinda d. 1888 aged 75. Oak Grove Cemetery, Coldwater, Michigan.

For Artemis Allen a year of birth of 1800 is indicated by the Branch County tombstone at FAG memorial 7116595 as well as by the 1850 census at FamilySearch.com, showing the likelihood that this is the early Medina Village pioneer.
