Biographical history
Samuel Evans Stokes Allen, 1874-1945, was born in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA, and received his MA from Yale in 1897. Between 1891 and 1895 he climbed and explored the Rocky Mountains in the Lake Louise area of Alberta, and printed a map of the mountains. He never returned to the mountains and suffered from symptoms of dementia a few years later, which resulted in his confinement for more than 40 years.
