Retrieving data ancestor?

I'm working on a fairly large tree, but can not find any information on my great grandfather. This is not surprisingly, he left his wife and seven children for life in California. What I do know: His name was James Lewis Allen, married and lived Belzora Hill Moody, Texas, during their life together. What I would like to know your birth date and place, death date and location, name of parents and other family members all information. Well thank you very much for answering! Since then I have found the information on it through further in research … now all I have to do is find my grandfather. Although unfortunately not much is known about it either because it came from a small rural family. But if someone wants to help his name is James "Big Jim" Corbett Pace and married Lillian Roberta Allen Pace. They had four children: Patricia, James Jr, Katherine, and Marian.

There several trees of the family in rootsweb.com with James Lewis Allen and his wife Belzora Hill. You can not always rely on data from trees of other people, but this particular may be of interest to a brief biography of James and his father.
