Bethany Republican, Mar 2, 1904
Mary Jane Allen was born in Delaware, July 25, 1824. Most of her childhood was spent in Maryland. She moved to Illinois with her uncle, when but 13 years of age, and later came to Missouri. Was married in 1842 to Tilford Hogan, living with him but a short time. On May 3, 1846, she was married to Josiah J. Allen, and lived with him until she departed this life, Sunday, February 21, 1904.
Deceased was a member of the Christian church at Mt. Gilead. She had suffered many years, but bore her suffering patiently and passed quietly away. She was the mother of nine children, four of whom are still living. Three were present during the last sickness, one lives in Kansas.
Mother Allen was a lady of strong mind and force of character, a true wife, a devoted mother, kind and attentive to the sick, and would do all in her power to make others happy.
The funeral was preached by the writer at Mt Gilead, in the presence of a large gathering of relatives and neighbors, after which her remains were taken to the Allen cemetery and laid to rest, where many of her old time friends and relatives were sleeping.
