Richard Allen was born on 19 July 1800, in Birmingham, Warwickshire, England. His early life was marked by hardship; in 1821, he was convicted at the Court of Assizes in Warwick for pocket-picking and sentenced to 14 years transportation. Despite prior convictions, including thefts of oranges and shoplifting, reports described him as orderly on the journey. On 1 July 1821, Richard departed England aboard the Lord Hungerford, arriving in Hobart, Tasmania, on 26 December 1821. By the late 1820s, Richard was living in Bothwell, where he served as a Field Police Constable, though he was fined in 1828 for neglect of duty related to purchasing liquor for a servant. He received a conditional pardon in 1831.

On 8 May 1832, he married Julia Antoni at Green Ponds with the consent of her guardian; Richard was 31, Julia only 15. Their family grew in Bothwell, with children Mary (born 1833), Julia (1835), Sarah (1837), Richard Jr (1842), Matilda (1844), Elizabeth (1846), Amelia (1848), William John (1849), Cecilia Jane (1852), Annie Marie (1858), and Zillah Sophia (1860).

In 1834, Richard faced charges for cattle stealing alongside accomplices but was found not guilty by the Supreme Court in Hobart. Despite this, he continued to establish himself in the Bothwell community. He held property in Alexander, Adelaide, Glebe, and High Streets, purchasing land and receiving deeds throughout the 1840s to 1860s. Richard worked as a carrier and farmer and participated actively in civic duties, including serving as a juror and contributing to local relief funds. The family endured personal tragedies, notably the deaths of his daughters Cecilia Jane and Matilda from scarlet fever in the early 1850s. Richard’s wife, Julia, died of cancer in 1866.

Richard lived until 21 October 1882, passing away at the age of 82 from stomach cancer. His funeral at Bothwell’s General Cemetery was attended by many, reflecting his status as a respected pioneer settler. At his death, eight of his fourteen children survived and were well-established.
