3. | Abbie Tabitha Allen (1.Amanda1) was born on 16 Feb 1863 in Sabine County, Texas; and died. Notes:
Could she be the mother of Frankie Sims? In her biography of the William Washington Allen family, Katherine Allen Tirado, a younger half sister of Abbie Tabitha Allen, writes that "Little Frankie Sims died March 12, 1884 age 4 years old. He was a little curly head darling, the most precious little boy. Nephew of Frank D. Allen." Abbie would have been old enough to have a son born in 1880, none of her younger half sisters would have been. Also, Frank and Abbie were the only two known children born to William Washington Allen and his first wife, Amanda Halbert.
