A. A. Allen had four children.
A. A. Allen's itinerant ministry work placed considerable demands on his family life. His constant travel for meetings and the inconsistent income created a significant strain for his wife, Lexie, and their four children. The responsibility of managing their household under these conditions was notably wearing on Lexie.
To seek more stability, Allen eventually accepted a pastoral position. In 1947, he took on the role of pastor for a church in Corpus Christi, Texas, a move that likely aimed to provide a more settled environment for his family.
