Allen Sams & Family — Allen Sams & Family

Front row: Robert (Bob), Allen, Mary, Emiline, Serena. Back row: Conley, Lillie, James Monroe (He went by the name Monroe.)

I think it was taken around 1915 in Irvine. He owned a store south and east and his wife Emiline owned a farm and a boarding house across the road from the store. I am trying to find who Allen's parents are. The family story says he was orphaned when he was very young and we think he was raised by an uncle or his grandfather. Barbara Roberts (she still lives in Irvine) thinks he may have been raised in an orphanage.
