Joseph Allen (bishop)

Joseph Allen, DD (1770[1]–20 March 1845) was a British clergyman. He was the son of William Allen and his wife Nelly Livesey. William Allen (d.1792) was a partner in Manchester's first Bank, Byrom, Allen, Sedgwick and Place (founded 1771) but was made bankrupt in 1788 on the failure of the Bank. This was despite inheriting £20,000 from his father, John Allen, of Davyhulme Hall, Eccles.[2][3][4][5]
