A family story states that she and her brother Marcus were raised by Edmond Pendleton Gaines Tackett [their first cousin]. This same Edmond settled George's estate and was later sued by Alice and Marcus. In the depositions of that suit, it states that Alice lived with Edmond until she married, and that Marcus lived with Edmond until he was a teenager. | A family story states that she and her brother Marcus were raised by Edmond Pendleton Gaines Tackett [their first cousin].
