Subject: GOLDRUSH MOST WANTED-Joseph S. ALLEN

We are searching for info on Joseph S. ALLEN of Nevada county, California. Joseph was born in Casey county, Kentucky in 1790 and emigrated with his parents and siblings to Scott County, Illinois, about 1819. He served in the Mexican War from Scott county in 1846. He left for California in 1849. We believe he married Mary Ann CLEVELAND about 1850 in Nevada county. Joseph died in Nevada county in 1887, just after he had qualified for a federal pension for his military service.

If anyone knows any of Joseph and Mary's offspring please contact us.

Yours truly,

Bill and Loydean Allen
