James is recorded as being born in Kentucky as at least one record ofAllen. He and two child ren lived in the Flemings District of RutherfordCo. and were enumerated on the 13th day of Se ptember 1850 . James' motherNancy and perhaps his sister Martha Rodgers are also living wit h him.

Unknown but there is a James Jamison m. Sarah Lorance on Jan 9, 1841 inRutherford Co., TN

Noting the birthdays of the Rodger children in James' household, the moveto Tennessee from Ke ntucky was between 1827 and 1835 because of thebirths of the children. Thomas Allen was in th e state at t he 1840 censusas well as married with children. He married in 1835 to Carolin e who wasborn in TN. Their first child James was born in 1836 in Tennessee.
