as well as her work dealing with the affairs of taking charge of German colonists during her husband William Berczy's travels.
The following year in 1791, Allamand's husband accepted the task of recruiting German colonists and they led them to the Genesee Association in New York state.
Shortly after, the agent of the American colonization group, Charles Williamson, did not meet the terms of their agreement and Berczy left the settlement to near present-day Canaseraga, New York late in 1793 to seek help.
Unfortunately, the Berczys and the new settlers struggled in the newly developing land and were running short of supplies much faster than anticipated.
The Association backers were also reluctant to commit more money, which forced Berczy to again depart travelling extensively to secure food and tools, which he often put on credit.
[2][3] In the later years of her life, Allamand had many difficult times where she struggled immensely with the lacking presence and support of her husband.
The majority of the rest of Allamand's husband's life was occupied by travels in attempt to settle agreements and make ends meet.
At one point, Berczy was forced to sell their house, and Allamand was nearly homeless if not for the sympathy of the new owner who allowed her to stay.
[2][3] When left to support herself alone in Montreal, Allamand opened an academy school for girls in her small rented accommodations to teach drawing, water-colour, music, and languages.
[2][3] At some point after 1817, she joined her son William Bent in his home in Sandwich (which is Windsor of today) in Upper Canada.
Allamand lived the remainder of her years with her son as a quiet life, only occasionally painting as a hobby.
