Julia McWade Blazer and Harriet McWade Allen were the daughters of William McWade, who came to Brecksville, Ohio from Vermont in 1831, and Wealthy Wilcox McWade of Brecksville, Ohio. Harriet married William Allen about 1860 and moved to Wisconsin. Julia taught school in Warren, Ohio until Dr. J. H. Blazer engaged her to serve as a teacher for his motherless children. Julia moved to New Mexico, where she eventually married Dr. Blazer. William Allen had a number of brothers. Benjamin F. Allen had moved West., residing for a time near Hamilton, Colorado and later in Gold Mine, Nevada. Thomas Jefferson Allen was a newspaperman who lived in Chicago, Cincinnati and Cleveland at various points in his career. Joseph Allen tried unsuccessfully to make it in business prior to the Civil War. With the outbreak of hostilities, he enlisted with a Minnesota artillery battery which began its service at Fort Sarelling, Minnesota on October 21, 1861. Eventually this unit was stationed in the St. Louis and Corinth, Mississippi areas. Joseph's letters to his brother describe a typical soldier's life, such as the constant threat of disease which claimed many soldiers, including Joseph himself in 1863. Frank C. Allen was a son of Hattie and William Allen. He lived in Tularosa, New Mexico for many years.
