Per the HISTORY OF MADISON COUNTY, IN, Vol. 2 by Forkner, page 571:

Charles H. Allman.
"An enterprising and highly successful farmer of Van Buren Twp., Charles Allman is a fine representative of the native-born citizens of Madison County, his birth having occurred September 16, 1883 on a farm lying two miles west of Summitville. His father, John Allman, for many years a prominent agriculturist of Madison County, was born in 1838 and reared in Tipton Co., IN...

Brought up in his native township, Charles H. Allman acquired his education in the Allen School and on the home farm, where he was well-drilled in the agricultural arts. Choosing the independent occupation which his father so successfully followed and satisfied that no better region for general farming could be found in Indiana than that in which he lived, Mr. Allman bought eighty-acres of land that are now included in his present estate of three hundred and twenty acres and began its improvement. Successful in his undertakings, he has given his undivided attention to its management. Each year, in the gathering of his bountiful crops, he is rewarded for his toil and trouble.

On December 21, 1904, Mr. Allman was united in marriage with Miss Bertha M. Thurston, who is one of the six living children of the late Joseph and Mary E. (Welch) Thurston, who were the parents of seven children.

Mrs. Allman was reared in the county of Madison and educated in common schools, with one term at Summitville High School. She is vice president of her Sunday school class -- #2 at Summitville, IN. Mr. and Mrs. Allman have two children, namely: Estelle Lucille and Paul Thurston. Politically, Mr. Allman is a Democrat; religiously, both he and his wife are active and valued members of the Christian Church at Summitville.
