Philip Allen (September 1, 1785{{spaced ndash}}December 16, 1865) was an American manufacturer and politician from Rhode Island. He served as Governor of Rhode Island and as a Democratic member of the United States Senate.

Early life

Allen was born in Providence, Rhode Island, the son of Zachariah Allen and Nancy Crawford Allen.[2] He was educated by private tutors and attended Taunton Academy and Robert Rogers School in Newport, Rhode Island.[3] In 1803, he graduated from the College of Rhode Island and Providence Plantations (the former name of Brown University) at Providence.[4] After graduation, he engaged in mercantile pursuits and foreign commerce before becoming a manufacturer of cotton goods in Smithfield, Rhode Island. He was president of the Providence Insurance Company, and in 1831 he began manufacturing cotton goods in Providence.[5]

Political career

He began his political career as a member of the Rhode Island House of Representatives, serving from 1819 to 1821.[6] In 1827, he was appointed pension agent and president of the Rhode Island branch of the United States Bank.[7]

Allen was elected as the Democratic Governor of Rhode Island in 1851.[2] He served as Governor until 1853, when he resigned that office after being elected to represent Rhode Island in the United States Senate.[5] Allen served in the Senate from July 20, 1853 to March 3, 1859, and was Chairman for the Committee of Agriculture, Nutrition and Forestry during the Thirty-third Congress and the Thirty-fourth Congress.[8][9] He was not a candidate for renomination, and retired from politics and business in 1859.

He died in Providence on December 16, 1865,[4] and is interred in the North Burial Ground in Providence.[10]

Family life

He married Phoebe Aborn in 1815, and they had eleven children.[7]

Honors

In 2016, Allen was inducted into the Rhode Island Heritage Hall of Fame.[1]
