[Do you have a source on Elizabeth's death date?]
Not that I remember, but this is from my article in my Allsup Update.
Daniel
Daniel Allsup (1811 - 1881) was the first known member of the familyto settle in Iowa. The exact date he moved across the MississippiRiver has not been discovered. His future sister-in-?law, ElizabethWalter, came across near Ft. Madison on 17 August 1833. Daniel's newwife (Eliz. Reynolds m. 8 April 1833), had passed away 12 days beforethat event, and he may have followed close after the Walter family.
He is said to have left Indiana in 1835, and was in Henry County intime to woo Susannah Pollock, and marry her on 24 March 1836, and forthe arrival of their firstborn, John R. Allsup, on 20 September 1837.
Most of my material for the Update (for this, my own, family) camefrom 1) The Centennial Issue of the New London (IA) Journal and theHistory of Henry County, IA. Daniel was honored a few years ago as anIowa Pioneer. Henry - Keeper of the Alsup Flame" [Transcribed 12November 2007, SLJuhl, compiler, sljuhl1234@yahoo.com]

Notes:

It was noted by the compiler that all of the children in the censusrecords were born in Indiana. Taking the corresponding birth dates onthe census records from around c.1840 to c.1860 and comparing them tothe residence of Leonard & Celina during those years it must be thatall of the children were born in Carr Township, Jackson County,Indiana. Also, Celina was born in Indiana as well according to thecensus records, so it would be appropriate to also assert that Celinaand Leonard were probably married in Indiana as well. Of course, moreresearch is required on the family, and with all genealogy it is awork in progress. SLJuhl, Compiler.

On the 12 August 1850 Federal Census for Carr Township, JacksonCounty, Indiana--a Richard Yauncey (dwelling 121/123) was living nextdoor to Leonard C. Alsup (dwelling 122/124) . In Richard Yauncey'shouse hold was probably a grandson of about two years old, RichardReynolds, b. IN. William Junior Reynolds was married to NancyYauncey. William Junior Reynolds sister Elizabeth was married toLeonard C. Alsup's brother, Daniel Alsup. The family connections tothe Reynolds & Allsup Families are obvious by following RichardReynolds, grandson of the Yauncey's in the census records.

It was also noted in the census records the surname changes over theyears from Allsup to Alsup.

Leonard married Celina Silina Holmes between 1830 and 1835 in Probably Jackson County, Indiana. Celina was born in 1817 in Indiana, USA; died on 19 Jul 1897 in Jackson Co., Indiana, USA. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

J.C. Allsup
J. C. ALLSUP was born in Jackson County, Ind., on the 3d of February,1823. His parents were John and Nancy (Shumaker) Allsup, the former anative of Virginia and the latter of Tennessee. In 1816 they emigratedto Indiana and settled in Jackson County, where John Allsup felled thetrees, and in the midst of the forest developed a fine farm. Therewere eight children in the family who grew to manhood, but only two ofthese are now living: Richard H., of Jackson County, Ind., and J. C.,our subject. John Allsup was reared in the Dunkard Church. Mrs. Allsupdied a member of the Christian Church. She was a true mother, asincere Christian, an earnest worker for the Master.
The subject of this sketch is a pioneer of two States, Indiana andIowa. He was reared in the new country of Indiana, educated in theprimitive schools, and was apprenticed to his trade of a carpenter in1838, receiving his board and a suit of clothes. His apprenticeshipwas over a term of two years. In the fall of 1841 he came to HenryCounty, remaining one winter on Skunk River, and in 1845 he led to themarriage altar Miss Elizabeth M. Burge. She was born in LickingCounty, Ohio, in April, 1825. One child was born to them, R.Elizabeth, now the wife of John Noble, of Page County, Iowa. Mrs.Allsup was called to her final home in the year following hermarriage. Mr. Allsup was again married, in 1847, to Mrs. ElizabethSharp, widow of Davis Sharp, by whom she had three children: Davis, ofLee County, Iowa; Hannah, wife of Edward Forbes, of Oregon, and RobertJ., of Oregon.
Mr. and Mrs. Allsup had a family of six children, five of whom are nowliving: Ellen, who is the widow of Francis M. Prickett; Jennie,residing in Taylor County, Iowa, is the wife of Charles Richardson;Leni Leoti lives at home; Harrison resides at Canton, Ill.; Jessie isthe wife of Hiram Allen, of New London. In 1865 Mr. Allsup came to Mt.Pleasant, where he has since resided. When he first came to thiscounty the settlements were so few that each man knew all of thesettlers of the county. One could travel miles and not strike a farm,and there were but two or three settlers between New London andMiddletown. Mr. Allsup will always be remembered for the good he hasdone for Mt. Pleasant and Henry County, Iowa. In politics, he is aRepublican, though he has voted with the Greenback party.
