First mention of Perscilla Sugg is found in her fathers will of 1734 in Norfolk County, Virginia Wills: No mention in the will of Perscilla's mother Sarah Ives.. It is assumed at this time she was deceased.

In 1790, Gabriel Allen was living in Edgecombe County, North Carolina. His household consisted of one white male over the age of 16, three white males under the age of 16, and six white females. Gabriel owned seven slaves. Gabriel's wife was Anne McKinney.
William Sugg of Edgecombe County made mention of Gabriel Allen in his will, stating, "I leave to my daughter, Euphrenia Stockdale, the bay mare I purchased of Gabriel Allen."
Gabriel's mother was Priscilla Sugg, the daughter of George Sugg and Sarah Ives of Norfolk County, Virginia and also of Pitt Co, N.C. Gabriel named a son George Sugg Allen, and the Sugg family of Edgecombe County moved to middle Tennessee about the same time that Gabriel Allen did. Contact was maintained between the two families after moving to Tennessee, as Gabriel and his son, George Sugg Allen, witnessed the will of Noah Sugg in Robertson County, Tennessee in 1800.
Gabriel Allen was in Tennessee by 1797 when, on the 12 of November, he purchased 220 acres of land on Pigeon Creek, west of the Harpeth River in Montgomery County, Tennessee. The deed was registered in Davidson County, Tennessee because that land had been originally included in the borders of that county.
In about 1812, Gabriel Allen and his wife, Anne McKinney, moved to the Territory of Mississippi and settled on Bogue Chitto several miles below Holmesville, Pike County. A few years after that move, Gabriel Allen died and is said to be buried near his homesite. His wife, Anne, is listed as a widow on the 1820 Census of Pike County, Mississippi. She is believed to have died about 1833.
