Subject: Thank you from an Allen descendant

My name is Adam Deuel and I am the great-great-great grandson of Mary Addie Allen, Her son Edgar Guilford "Gip" Little is my great-great grandfather, his daughter Mayme Elizabeth Little was my beautiful great grandmother, born 2/18/1904 in Cove Arkansas and passed away at the age of 101 in June 2005 in Phoenix, Arizona. My great grandmother spoke about the Allen's when I was younger (I'm now 33 and can appreciate those stories)
Thank you so much for the detail you have put up for those of us who are researching our families roots.
Sincerely,
Adam Deuel
