Additional commentary.
1. Marguerite du Pont-Ortiz lineage
Are you aware of any location where I might find Ms. Du Pont-Ortiz Boden's lineage to Thomas Allen? I am also a descendent of Thomas Allen, and involved with several researchers of that line. We would love to compare our research to what Ms. Boden had.
