Allen family. Collection, 1718-1838.

Title: Collection, 1718-1838.

This collection reflects the widespread economic activities of Nathaniel Allen, his sons, Thomas, Jolley, and Lewis; Thomas' son, Thomas Jr.; and Thomas Jr.'s son, William. There are one thousand three hundred sixty-eight pieces of Allen family correspondence (two hundred twenty-five of which are family or personal), for the period 1737 to 1835; the balance refers primarily to shipping and farming ventures. The majority of the collection relates to the economic activity of Thomas Allen, a general storekeeper and innkeeper, who later engaged in shipping from New London, came to own sixteen vessels, and was heavily involved in the West Indian trade. He originated the first marine lists in New London. Many of the loose documents are connected to the bankruptcy of Thomas Allen in 1765. Some good letters relate to the exiled Loyalist Jolley Allen in London. There are also three boxes of documents, bills, receipts, and miscellany covering the period from 1718 to 1833. There are also general store accounts of Nathaniel Allen and his son, Jolley Allen, and farming accounts and day books of Thomas Allen, Jr., and William Allen.
