Harlan County Journal. Alma, Nebraska, Friday June 7, 1901.
Levi Allen died at his home in Alma, Nebraska, Wednesday, January 5, 1901.
The deceased was born at Walpole, Chescheia county, N.H., August 23, 1819 son of Ariall, and Fanny Bundy Allen. On June 6, 1840 he was united in marriage with Cynthia Walden, at Spencer, N.Y. Eight children were born of this union, five of whom are now living—Chas. Allen, Baraboo, Wisconsin, Albert Allen, Powersville, Iowa, Myron Allen, Alma, Nebraska, Hiram Allen, Cambridge, Nebraska, Edward N. Allen, Arapahoe, Nebraska. June 24, 1878, 28 years ago, Levi Allen came to Harlan County, Nebraska, settling at Alma where he has since resided. The funeral occurs today, Friday June 7, 1901, at 11 o'clock a.m. from the house. Rev. Beall will preach the funeral sermon and J.F. Morgan, J.A. Gibson, B.M. Simms, J.L.Barnes, Chas. Waddle, and J.L. Everson will be the pallbearers. Interment will be in the Alma cemetery.
Levi Allen was a member of the Baptist church. He came of that vigorous old New England stock that has left its mark and impress upon this great nation, whose people coming from the rugged rock and hill, inured in the early settlements of the country to great privations finally made of their sterile land a rich and fruitful region, teeming with the highest and best of civilization; sent their sons and daughters out into the land of the westward to build it into a great nation. This is the calibre of the stock from which Levi Allen sprung, and his life was worthy of his ancestry; vigorous and industrious, imbued with noble traits of character, honest and kindly in disposition. He made an ideal husband, father and citizen, living to a ripe old age his family and friends can look back and review the history of a life replete with good. The last days of his life were the saddest for many days he suffered with a diseased condition of the stomach and his suffering has been intense, but he has born it with that fortitude characteristic of his manhood.
