Biography

Early life

Lynn was born Ginger Lynn Allen in Rockford, Illinois, the daughter of 18-year-old clock supervisor Wayne Allen and 19-year-old switchboard operator Marilyn née McBride. Life in the Allen household ranged from dysfunctional to pathological, where she was subject to abuse mainly by her mother. When Allen's father left in 1968, the abuse worsened as her mother blamed her for all her problems. Her only refuge was Wayne Allen's parents, who gave her emotional support and positive reinforcement; however, her mother controlled the visits. Also, Allen had very few friends during her childhood, resulting in the creation of imaginary friends which seemed very real to her. Her grandmother recounted that this lasted "a very long time." , Nickname: The Forest City Country State County Township Elevation 715 ft (218 m) Coordinates , Area 56. ...

At 13, she had a boyfriend, who was a drug addict. Through this boyfriend, she not only began her descent into substance abuse, but also became pregnant -- and later aborted the pregnancy.
