    3. Thanks, Tammy. I look forward to viewing any additional information that you can find. My family in that area were the Alcie (many spellings for both first and last names) Clemons', mainly. They married into the following families: Anderson, Marshall, Wilson, Hills, Veal, Wesley, Flemings, Hodges, Jones, Nelson - among others. If anyone has the name(s) of funeral home(s) that would have been available to African-American families during the late 1800's through the turn of the last century, I would appreciate your help.
