The Passing of Marybeth Allan

We say goodbye to our cousin Marybeth Allan (nee: Genetti), a descendant of the Illinois family, who passed away on December 29, 2025.

Marybeth Allan, of Edwardsville, Illinois, was born on January 15, 1946, in East St. Louis, Illinois, and passed away peacefully at home on Monday, December 29, 2025, surrounded by her loving family, after a short but courageous battle with aggressive lung cancer.

Marybeth’s greatest joy was her family. She is survived by her daughter, Bobbie (Timothy) Madura of Troy, Illinois; her granddaughters, Caitlyn (Shane) Knight-Daiss of Bellevue, Nebraska, and Makita (Michael) Trexler of Troy, Illinois; and her adored great-grandchildren, Oliver, Penelope, and Oscar.

She was the great-granddaughter of Costantino (August) Genetti (1842-1914) and Rosina Wahl Hummerer Kermeier (1842-1926). Born in Castelfondo, Costantino was the first Genetti to immigrate to the United States as a young man in 1867. He and Rosina married in 1868, settling in Collinsville, Illinois and later purchased a farm in Webster, Missouri. Marybeth is the granddaughter of their son Constantine (August) Genetti (1874-1963) and Mary Osredkar (1878-1958).
