Notes - Some information on Jerusha and her husband Oliver Allen came in an email from Wilfred Vasile, dated 28 Mar 2012. He references LeRoy (NY) Historical Society records, "Seymour Genealogy" p 89. Additional information came from the 1850 census, where she is living next to Silas Remington; also from "Wheatland, Monroe County, New York: a brief sketch of its history" by George Engs Slocum, page 97 (Google Books online). With the census and the information from the book about Monroe County, I was able to determine that Jerusha is a sister of Silas and William.
In the Federal Census of 1850, Jerusha Allen is age 49 VT, living at Wheatland, Monroe Co., NY. With her are daughter Elizabeth 25 NY, and son Oliver 26 NY, along with his wife Catharine 24 NY and their daughter Frances C. 1 NY. They are living/listed next to Silas Remington and family. I am assuming that Jerusha (Remington) Allen is his sister, based on the above-mentioned historical book, along with her age and birthplace as given in the census.
In the Federal Census of 1860, she is J. H. Allen 60 VT (a domestic), living with her son Oliver and his family, at Wheatland, NY.
Jerusha's middle initial is given as H in at least one census, and in the above-mentioned book by Slocum. Her middle name is given as Hopkins in "Landmarks of Monroe County, NY" by William F. Peck (1895), Part III, p. 80 - 81.
