Very little is known about the wife of John ALLRED. Her maiden name is believed to be JULIAN from nearby Cecil County, Maryland. The ALLRED families lived in Chester County, Pennsylvania adjacent to Cecil County, Maryland the home of the JULIAN Families. It is logical to imagine theses two families became acquaintances and friends. John ALLRED and Lydia JULIAN were perhaps married in 1746 as teenagers and longtime friends based on their ages and homes. John and his beloved wife Lydia were the parents to nine children.
It is thought their first child may have been born in York County, Pennsylvania as theses families migrated west to escape the taxation turmoil of Chester County. It is believed the second and third children were born in Winchester, Frederick County, Virginia before their families migrated down the Great Wagon Road into Colonial Orange (now Randolph) County, North Carolina by 1755. It is more likely their first two children were born in Winchester, Frederick County, Virginia before their families migrated down the Great Wagon Road into Colonial Orange (now Randolph) County, North Carolina. They had eight daughters and one son. Lydia most likely died from complications at the birth with their ninth child in 1770. In honor and respect for the mothers tragedy it is suggested that the new child was named Lydia after her mother. Therefore it is reasonable to identify Lydia ALLRED with Lydia JULIAN.
