EDWARD ALLEN, received from his father, Hope Allen (wife Rachel), of Boston, a large part of Portland [Maine], bought from Mr. Cleeve, and sold it to George Bramhall and Henry Kirke. Apparently came first to Berwick, and was fined in York Court, July 1673, for being absent from meeting, but soon settled on Dover Neck below Thompson's Point. Prison keeper, 1678, probably bookkeeper for Major Waldron. In 1703-1704. he visited Lynn to assist the widow about his brother Capt. Benjamin's estate. His wife, Sarah, died about 1720. Children: 3 sons and "several daughters"...

[Two of the sons are identified as Edward Jr., later of Nantucket, and Joseph of Dover. The daughters are identified as Rachel (Allen) Twombly, Sarah (Allen) Wentworth, Leah (Allen) Canney, and Mary (Allen) Pinkham. A third son, unidentified, "went to sea" and likely died there.]

Don't confuse him with Edward Allen of Ipswitch and Suffield 1633 - 1696 who married Sarah Kimball.
