Hi Richard, my research is mostly on the Allens themselves, I am not possitive that
Isaac is related only thru the research I have done on him and my Allens, there are many
paths that cross. I have just really begun to check into Isaac Allens line but my cousin
has done more on it and she might possibly have more info on the Summers line. But I
know now where Thomas Allen got the name Elijah for his son. it was a bit out of
tradition for that name to apprear in the Allen naming pattern. So this explains that.
I am going to forward this to her and see if she has any info on the Summers that might
be of use to you. I did find the info Judy was talking about on the Parke co. site and
can state one thing. Isaac Allen was not born in Scott co. va. It was not even a
county when Isaac was born. Or even when several of his children were born. I did read
where Elizabeth Summers was born in Augusta co. va. Have you checked out the chalkely
Chronicles there. !
Good Luck, Sue
