John Alrede is most likely the father of William Allred, who married first by approximation in 1549, and second, by record, in 1567.  Unfortunately, the record does not provide the name of William's first spouse.  His second wife was Elizabeth."  (Reference source states: "John Alrede appears in an English tax record in 1526. Great Britain, Court of Augmentation, Lancashire Royal Subsidies, 1523-1527, E179/183/83, membrane 2, Salford Hundred, Eccles Parish, John Alrede, [taxed in] goods [valued at] 40 shillings, [tax], 12 pence; Public Record Office, London; FHL microfilm 2,228,691, item 6. John Alrede is the only Allred located in Salford Hundred in this time period. A "Hundred" was a governmental and taxing administration district in northern England, including Lancashire. Eccles Parish was located in Salford Hundred.")

Historical Note about the early Allred families of Eccles, Lancashire (as taken from the book "From England to America: Our Allred Family", by Dawnell Hatton Griffin, 2015, p.10): "More than likely, these early Allred families in Eccles Parish were tenant farmers or even cottagers who also engaged in the woolen and linen industries of Lancashire.  Evidence for this claim is derived from items listed at the time of death in inventories and probate estate settlements, where farming and weaving implements are enumerated."

    "According to custom, John Allred (the Elder) [b.1571], left the largest portion of his legacy to his oldest son, William [chr.1594].  When John Allred made his Will in 1633 he identified himself as a husbandman, indicating that he was a free tenant farmer or small landowner.  He specified that his body was to be buried in the parish church of Eccles and that his whole [written 'hole' in the document] living was to be assigned to his son William.  He mentioned his wife Ann and a daughter, Catherine.  Ann Taylor Allred, died four years later, in 1637.  In her will, she mentioned that she was a widow, and then proceeded to provide additional information about her children, naming her sons, William and John, and daughters Ann Travis, Elizabeth Bradshaw and Catherine Ouldham, some of whom were left out of her husband's will.  Ann was clear in her instructions to her son William, who received the remainder of the estate.  He was to provide for his younger brother, John, even though he was past the age of minority.  The law and custom of primogeniture care clearly incorporated into the distribution of the remainder of her worldly goods."  Footnote: "The long term custom, called the law or custom of primogeniture, provided that the oldest surviving son would inherit all or almost all of the property of the deceased parent, leaving the other children without substantial inheritance.  This had it roots in the succession of kings, lords and other nobles, but during medieval times began to be practiced in non-noble succession.  Its purpose was to preserve both the family land and wealth by preventing its distribution to multiple heirs in each generation." "An inventory of John's estate after his death demonstrates that he was a farmer, a beekeeper, and was involved in the woolen trade.  He had farm implements (for example, carts, wheeles, plows) and farm animals.  He also had linen and wool yarn, a kneading trough (for dying cloth) and a spyinning wheele.  He had beese (bees), honnecomes and bolls.
    "William Allred, the oldest child of John Allred and Ann Taylor, had an illegitimate daughter with Ann Adkinson.  Their daughter, Anne Alred alias Adkinson, died on May 15, 1618, in Eccles Parish when she was about four months old.  William married Alice Tongue (Tonge) on October 27, 1625.  Alice was married previously to George Elcocke on March 9, 1618, who died before 1625, when she married William.  William and Alice had seven children, three of whom died young.  Anne was christened on August 6, 1626 and died before 1632. Alice was christened on January 2, 1630. Elizabeth was christened on October 7, 1632 and her sister Anne was christened on October 24, 1632.  They probably were twins.  Mary was christened on August 9, 1635 and buried on February 1, 1636.  John Allred was christened on March 26, 1637 [and] was buried on April 7, 1701, in Pendleton Poole, a small village in Eccles Parish.  John married Ellen Pemberton, and after her death in 1684 he remarried a wife whose name is presently unknown.  The youngest child, Jane, was christened November 28, 1641, and was buried on June 15, 1642.  To date, no marriages have been found for Alice, Elizabeth and Anne.  Exactly when William died remains to be documented, but he was dead when there was an inventory of his probate estate.  We do not know when Alice died."
