Allyn family (476)
1159. Richard Allyn. Richard died on 5 Aug 1651.

The spelling of Allen/Allyn/Allin/Alling depends more on location than on family history. The recorders of towns, whether they’re ministers or clerks, tend to use the spelling they’re used to, but they’re not very consistent. So, when a family moves, the spelling of the name can change.

Allens in Braunton.

Richard, possibly son of Matthew & Katherine Allen, or of Nicholas & Margery (Taylor) Allen, or George & Katherine Allen. Not John & Elizabeth (Alabaster) Allen.
On 24 Sep 1583 Richard married Margaret Wyott, daughter of Walter Wyott & Joan Pilford, in Braunton, Devon. Born on 9 Nov 1569 in Braunton, Devon. Margaret died in Hartford, CT in May 1642.
