Margaret Allender Lashley was my 4th great grandmother. I have not been able to determine who her parents were. She was born in Ohio and married George Lashley October 1, 1829. George's sister Sarah Lashley married William Daniel Allender October 15, 1829. William and Margaret are presumed to be siblings but we are still looking for their parents. We are also hosting an Allender DNA surname study please visit that website

My grandfather Earl H. Vordenberg was born June 1891. The family has been told by Earl's sons that he traveled to Dayton, OH to find his birth mother and he received this picture of her. It was also said that her name was Allender. My grandfather, Earl, was adopted by Fred Vordenberg by the time of the 1900 census and listed as "adopted son" on that census. We would love to know for sure if Augusta Allender was Earl's birth mother. Contact almamagis at fuse.net with information

We found this photo with a note that said her name was Allender. It is said that Earl Vordenberg found his birth mother in Dayton, OH and got this picture from her. I have found a woman on the 1910 census - A(u)gusta Allender in Dayton. I also found Augusta Allender on the 1880 census living in Indiana with a family named Kitchell. In 1920 Augusta is listed as the wife of Hugh Walsh who was a boarder in her Dayton home on the 1910 census. We would love to know if this is Augusta Allender.
