Allan Marshall Cameron was born on Court. near Halstead St, several blocks from the Torris World plant where William Cameron worked. He was the fist born but contrary to the Scottish custom of naming the first born after the grandfather which would have been James which name had already been taken by Williams brother he was named after his grandmother family name Allan and mother's name Marshall and thus began a new line of Allan Marshall Camerons now including Allan 4th. Baby Allan was the pride of his father and had a close relationship with his father has did all of us. By 1910 we had moved to LeClaire Ave. on the edge of the city where he then attended Lane Tech
High School which was a manual training technical school before going to the University of Illinois. Lane Tech is located at 2501 W. Addison St. Allan would have ridden with his father on the way to work to a cross street and taken transportation south to Addison. This is like he would drop off Robert at Oak Park High School. In growing up Allan enjoyed the outdoors with his father and made trips to the Wisconsin Eagle Rivers lakes as shown by this picture of a fish he caught.
When Allan went to the University of Illinois he joined with a group who colonized and started the Sigma Chapter of the Chi Phi Fraternity which later my brother William and I both joined. This was an illustrious group which included Clifford F. Hood later Chairman U. S. Steel and Herman C. Krannert donator of the Center for Fine Arts building to the University of Illinois and both of whom I would meet at our reunions.
