I believe Margaret ALLEN,b 1796, wife of Thomas AKERS, b 1796 to be the daughter of
Elisha ALLEN and Sarah AKERS ALLEN. Elisha b abt 1760, and family were early settlers in
Indiana. In 1816 Elder John WILSON and Elder Thomas AKERS constituted a church (New
Providence aka Elim) with Deacon Elisha ALLEN and wife, Sarah, and Elijah MITCHELL, Samuel
GRAY and Katherine GRAY, and Katherine TANDY and Jacob WATSON.
Elisha left a will in 1819 naming his 13 children and wife, Sarah. Sarah is beieved to be
the daughter of Thomas AKERS & Mary SMITH.
