Thomps Allan

Aft 1807 - Yes, date unknown

• Name	Thomps Allan  [1]
  Born	Aft 1807	Georgia
  Gender	Male
  Died	Yes, date unknown
  Notes	Sometimes also shown as Thomas K. Sharon Holland provided to me some interesting information recently re: Mary Strickland's two marriages: "5. Mary was born October 17, 1773, and married John Gilbert, brother to William, and settled in Franklin County Georgia where he died. She then married James Allen and moved to Habersham County Georgia where she died leaving 5 Gilbert children named: Bill, Jim, Betsy, John, and Nancy, and three Allen children namely Thomps, Bob, and Henry." If Mary was married around age 18 had 8 children, averaging one every two years, her children would have been born between 1791 and 1807 in Georgia. I noticed she had one son by James Allen named THOMPS ALLEN. Could this be the same THOMPSON ALLEN, born ca 22 December 1802 in Elbert County, Georgia, that married Elizabeth WOOLDRIDGE OF Abbeville District, South Carolina and later settled in Sabine County, Texas? Elbert County is near both Franklin County and Habersham County, Georgia. I do not have any information about Thompson Allen's parentage, but it appears that both his birth year and birth location could very easily make him a son of Mary Strickland by her second husband James Allen. Additionally, many of the early settlers of Sabine County, Texas were descendants of the Strickland family. In fact, Lily Ethur Carter estimated at least 60% of the early settlers were Stricklands.
