Does any one who knows about the history of medicine know more about Frederick Madison Allen? I have tried to find out something about this man from the web, but some of the web-based material on Allen is copyright. ACEOREVIVED (talk) 09:33, 27 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

There is another page under Frederick M. Allen that should be merged with this. I am a newbie at wikipedia and do not know how to merge pages. Zooko (talk) 02:33, 3 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
