Excerpt from Biographical History of North Carolina, Vol. 2: From Colonial Times to the Present
Left fatherless at the tender age of seven, he went to live with his Grandmother Allison at Poplar Tent, Cabarrus County, North Carolina. It was under the fostering care and strong, resolute will of this noble type of womanhood that he developed the self reliance, courage and strength of character which brought him in later years ample means and wide in?uence and caused him to be known as the foremost man of Cabarrus.
Mr. Allison was a cultured, educated, Christian gentleman, fitted both by nature and grace to adorn any sphere either in church or state. A man of sterling integrity, irreproachable character, unswerving in fidelity to duty, honest and upright in all his dealings, kind-hearted and generous, faithful to every trust, pure in life, chaste in thought and guarded in speech, he is eminently worthy of being embraced among those who have con tributed to the progress of the State.
