Youngest child of John H. Allen and his first wife, Jane. John was born in Missouri and went to Pueblo County, Colorado where he worked as a ranch foreman. It's believed he was murdered by a neighbor, John George Haas, with whom he had recently quarreled. Newspapers reported that Haas was put on trial but managed to purchase an acquittal, a practice that was not uncommon at the time.
