History in
a Pecan Shell
The town was either
named after an existing town in New Mexico or else Alcinie Dillard,
wife of settler John Dillard.
The town had a post office for only six or seven years from 1917 to
1923. It then moved to Lockney, Texas
which is 10 miles NW of the county seat of Floydada.
