  • Notes 
    • I believe Allen received his name in honor of his mother's brother, Allen. (David H. Drollinger 7 Mar 2021)

      Allen only had a forth grade education. He moved from Pennsylvania to Nebraska. He served in the Nebraska legislature. He was a Democrat. Notes courtesy of my first cousin, Wilma Lee (Ref Wilma Lee(Drollinger) Larson 'hard' file). (David H. Drollinger)

      Interestingly, at Ancestry.com/Family Trees I discovered another "Allen Sanford Howard" who was born 31 Aug 1889 in Lynden, Beverly, Wentworth, Ontario, Canada and died 16 Feb 1960 in Hamilton, Wentworth, Ontario, Canada.
