William died in 1850. His Will notes that he was of Wooddin Street East Greenwich, but previously of Ceylon Place. He was also described as Pilot. So, perhaps this William Allen was the pilot whom the Pub was named after.<br /><br />I may also have connections to a Pitt family in Australia, so maybe Allen was also connected to that family.<br /><br />Would you be able to help out with the location of Wooddin Street?<br /><br />Kind regards, Warren Diggins (Australia)<br />Warren Digginsnoreply@blogger.com
