Biography
Mary was born in 1831. She was the daughter of Lyndon King and Orilla Hutchins. She passed away before 1894.
Marriage
Married William Gustavus Allen. Nineteenth-century lecturer and educator William Gustavus Allen endured physical violence and barely escaped murder when he proposed marriage to Mary Elizabeth King, daughter of white minister, Lyndon King, in upstate New York. Their relationship later was the inspiration for a story about interracial love by author Louisa May Alcott, herself an abolition sympathizer.
