JOSEPH H. ALLISON was born in Oldham County, Ky., July 22, 1833, and is the
son of Elijah and Margaret (Frederick) Allison, natives of Kentucky, who
moved to this State in 1834, and settled in Gregg Township, where they drew
from the wilderness a farm and home, resided thereon thirty-two years, and
in 1866 removed near by, where they have remained.  Joseph H. lived with his
parents until he was twenty-one years old.  August 11, 1855, he married Miss
Nancy J. Wellman, a native of Kentucky, and to them was born one
child-Charles S.  In 1868, Mr. Allison removed to Monrovia, where he had
charge of the Monrovia Flouring Mills, and since then he has driven a hack
between Monrovia and Mooresville.  He is at present treasurer of Monrovia
Lodge, A. F. & A. M.  He is a Republican, a most exemplary man and citizen,
and he and wife are members of the Christian Church.
