I did some research on this line & am proud to say this was my first colored "Parks" family. It was so interesting! Lew/Lou Allen appears 1900 Census Lynchburg VA on Clary ST wife Mary & Niece Hallie Smith age 8(Lew md Mary ? 1898)
1920 this may be him? 1920 Accomack VA Lewis age 50 Mary age 53 & dau Macie age 21
Sherman's wife on the marriage Cert -WV gives Anna Alice Elizabeth Powell Her death Cert in WV gives John H. Powell as her father & Janetta Gales as her Mother.
Her Mother was Alice (Janetta)Tremble b 1858 MD d/o Peter Tremble 1880 Census
She was 1st married to a Little & had a son Arthur b 1878 & Alice Anna b 13 May 1897 d 6 Feb 1949 Mc Dowell Co WV
possibly a dau Burnitta b 1877 (1880 Census)
Anna Alice Little Powell Parks is listed as Alice Burdett in household of Peter Trembles 1880 Census, age 8
Wish I could have found more on Lou Allen Parks
Alice Little md George Gales 1884
