      COURT: In the Sussex County Orphans Court records we found the Guardian Accounts of Effie M. Allen, John E. Allen, Eliza C. Allen, Minor, daughter of John H. Allen. The first account for Eliza C. Allen, filed March 10th, 1885, shows capital of $38.56 and a balance income of $9.97. The second account for Lida C. Allen, filed April 14th, A.D. 1887 shows capital of $38.56 and overpaid income of $1.93. The second account includes an entry for Nov. 11 1885: To paid Minor to help pay her way to Philadelphia, $5.00. The third and final account for Lida C. Allen, was presented, examined, adjusted, and settled, August 26 A.D. 1889 and shows capital of $336.95 and a balance income in hand of $59.47. It appears that Lida C. Allen was known as Eliza C. Allen when she was young.
