In his undated will, proved 7 June 1649, "Georg(e) Allen the elder late of Sandwidge" bequethed to "all my children" 12p. apiece; to my son Matth(e)w" one calf and 5s.; to "my wife" the old cow; "my house & household stuff to my wife during the time that she continueth unmarried but in case she marries again my will is that they shall be disposed of to be divided amongst my five least children", to "my five least children" a cow apiece; to "my son Will(i)am the meadow I bought of Peeter Gaunt being in the second division"; "for my land & the rest of my meadow I give unto my sons Henry & Samuell"; my adventure in the bark I leave to my wife & the five least children"; wife "Katheren Allen" to be executrix and Ralph Allen and Richard Bourne to be overseers.
Marriage: (1) By about 1617 _______ .
(2) By 1627 Katherine _____ (assuming that William was her oldest Allen child.) She married (2) by 1656 John Collins of Boston. On 27 July 1670, Gideon Allen was granted administration on the estate of "John Collins last of Boston deceased". (John K. Allen noted the marriage in London on 5 November 1624 of "George Allen of London, clothworker, and Katherin Startkes of Woking," Surrey, and noted that this was a good chronological fit for the New England couple. Since George was very likely from Somerset, and is not known to have been in London, this suggestion seems unlikey, but, pending further research, not impossible.)
