    ALLAN, MalcoIm. - Born in Paisley, Scotland, in 1804, died in Wilmot in 1900.

There were nine children, of whom three only survive : Miss Margaret, of Stratford, (a most earnest churchwoman) , Mrs. Edward Johnston, Howick, and Mrs. R. N. Kerr, of Stratford. Mr. Allen was a great friend of education and gave his children very superior advantages in this respect.
