Notes - I have estimated Caleb's year of birth. Caleb Allen is mentioned as a kinsman in the will of Benjamin Northup, proved 17 Jan 1750 at North Kingstown. However, this is a confusing will abstract, because Jeffrey Watson's Diary says that Benjamin Northup died 2 Nov 1756, and was buried at Caleb Allen's on 4 Nov 1756. Perhaps the will was really proved in Jan 1757 (?).
The other possibility is that there were two Caleb Allens and two Benjamin Northups living in the same area around the same time.
