From 1933-1937, Allen wrote for Chattanooga Times Magazine feature Leaves from the Family Tree, which eventually became a book. During the 1930s, she directed the gathering of local records for the Works Progress Administration. As an authority on the Cherokee Indians, Allen developed a large collection of Cherokee books, manuscripts, letters, and other documents. Allen has also written several books, including Tennessee Soldiers in the Revolution, Historic Chattanooga, and Tennessee Soldiers in the War of 1812. She died on January 9, 1985.
