From Genealogy of the Waldo Family: A Record of the Descendants of ..., Volume 1 page 120
Mr. - Whitmore, in 44 N. E. Hist. <Gen. Register,> vol. xviii., p. 176, says that it was Mary who married Jeremiah Allen, but she died Mch. 27, 1709. The Boston Records contain the births of but three Jeremiah Allens of the right age to have married Abigail Waldo. One of these, born June 11, 1699, married, in 1722, Rebecca Kilby, who was living in 1734. Another was born June 24, 1702, son of Jeremiah and Mary Allen, and was presumably the brother of the third, and died young. It could not have been Jeremiah Allen, Sr., who married Abigail, since his wife Mary survived him, dying in 1749. The will of Jeremiah Allen, Sr., dated June 26, 1736, probated Jan. 27, 1741, names—wife Mary; son-in-law, John Wheelwright; daughter-in-law, Mrs. Martha Allen; daughter-in-law, Mrs. Elizabeth Allen; grandson, Jeremiah Wheelwright; and sons, James and Jeremiah Allen. The will of Mary Allen, widow of Jeremiah Allen, dated Aug. 2, 1749, probated Aug. 22, 1749, names—sons, Hon. James and Jeremiah Allen; grandson, Jeremiah Wheelwright; and granddaughters, Martha and Mary Allen.1 From there being no mention in either will of the granddaughter Abigail, it is probable that she had been cared for by the Waldos and that the Aliens considered that she had been sufficiently provided for by her grandfather, Jonathan Waldo.

15. William Kirkby, h. and g.; sold to James Hawkins. This, or the upper part of No. 1, was the lot upon which, later, the Rev. James Allen, of the First Church, built his famous stone house, which, when taken down after the war of 1812 to give place to the dwellings erected by David Hinckley, and now constituting the Congregational House, was thought to be the oldest stone house in the town. Allen had married the widow of the younger John Endicott, Elizabeth, the daughter of the tanner Jeremy Houchin. Allen devised, in 1710, his mansion-house to his son Jeremiah, who dying in 1741 it came to his son Jeremiah, dying in 1755, when the title finally passed to his son James, who sold it to his brother Jeremiah, the high sheriff, who died in 1809.
