Alice Tackett was born 18 Oct 1854 in Arkansas, as a daughter of [[George L Tackett (1830-65)]].
 
On Apr 2, 1860 three Tackett brothers went to the land office in Helena to purchase land in Arkansas County.
 
 
As "George L Tackett of Phillips County", he entered [http://www.glorecords.blm.gov/PatentSearch/Detail.asp?Accession=AR1760%5F%5F%2E377&Index=7&QryID=64266%2E45&DetailTab=2 160 acres by Cash Entry] at NW S33-T6S-R2W.  He also enters 160 acres at NE S32-T6S-R2W, again by Cash Entry.  However on this document he calls himself "George L Tackett of Arkansas County".  These two pieces touch each other, forming a rectangle.
 
 
As "Edmond P G Tackitt of Phillips County", his brother, entered 160 acres by Cash Entry, at SE S28-T6S-R2W.  This document is marked Cancelled and has other writing across it that I can't make out.  This land touches George's at the Southwest corner.
 
 
As "Mount Etna Tackett of Phillips County", their brother, entered 80 acres by Cash Entry, at E1/2SW S21-T6S-R2W. This land sits a quarter-section above E P's land, but a year later in 1861, Mount Etna came back and bought that intermediate quater-section as well.
 
  
 
Alice's father died Jun 1865 and her mother predeceased him. Her brother Marcus was two years younger than she. 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.
