James Allen, with his brother-in-law, Lieut. Josiah Standish, and William Peabody, had letters patent from the Lords Proprietors,through their agent, Thomas Mayhew, Governor of Martha's Vineyard, authorizing them to purchase land on the island of the Indian Sachems, the lawful owners. By the records it appeals that James Allen purchased a large tract called Chicame, in the manor of Tisbnry, now Chilmark and Tis-
bury. He settled upon it in 1660, near the old meeting house, and gave the town of Tisbury an acre of land for a burial place, in close proximity to the meeting house. He died 1714, aged 78. His wife Elizabeth survived her husband, and lived a widow 8 years. She had a good estate in her own right, which she bequeathed to her eleven children, all living in 17J 6, the date of her will. She died in 1722, and was buried in the old burying place.
