Clark/Clarke, McDonald2--I am looking for my Great Aunt, Sharlotte/Charlotte "Lottie" Waldo Clark(e) McDonald. She was born in AL in 1879, married James David McDonald, born Nov 16, 1872. AL. After they were married, they settled in Hattiesburg, MS in the early 1900's. One of Aunt Lottie's children was James Maynard McDonald, born May 1, 1900, in AL, and died March 1982 in Hattiesburg, MS. They owned McDonald's Grocery Store in Hattiesburg in the mid 1960's. I don't know if the store is still open. I need to know where the McDonald's are buried, and exactly when they died. I'd like to find some living relatives so I could get some pictures and family history. Especially of my Aunt Lottie. James and Lottie's other children are: Ruth McDonald, born Dec 6, 1906; R. Pearl McDonald, born Feb 15, 1905; Willie Fletcher McDonald, born Jan 23, 1908; George Harris McDonald, born Sep 22, 1910 (died as infant); Martha Mary Lou McDonald, born Dec 8, 1911.
