    Notes 
    • Evey says: “Clarence did barbering. I remember being at someone's house and many of us were outside. We kids were playing around, and Clarence was set up under a tree cutting somebody's hair. It seems to me that he did one haircut after another. It was one way of saving money, I suppose. In those days, money was very scarce.”
