Royce Allen was my great grandfather, (father of Sarah Allen Cornwell and married to Sarah Elizabeth Wilson). He was born 16 Jun 1817 in Camden, Oneida New York and died 15 Feb 1880 in Munson, Henry, Illinois. He was a farmer who raised champion Durham cattle. One of his bulls gored him and died as a result of this accident.
He had a long and very "flowery" obituary. I tried to add it here...but it didn't work!
Miss C. P. Allen (listed before Royce Allen) is his sister, Chloe Permelia Allen.
