Hi Randy, I believe this is an early, and potentially hand-drawn version of the Johns-Carabelli Company’s custom Modified Roman alphabet.
While some Arabic fonts are available, I believe this falls under the category of Arabic calligraphy and was done by hand.
Hello, this is an AICA member font named Regal Roman, design in the 1990s by Gene Faehnle. Years ago Creative Premiere Designs out of Elberton (now owned by Eagle Granite) had a version of it available.

Unfortunately this is not something I recognize, and there is not much detail in the small photo to be much help in identifying it.
Hello, it looks like there may have been a problem uploading your image. Go ahead and try to re-upload it.
Hi Kim, this is an AICA member font named AICA 25. There are many custom versions of the font, and this looks like the slightly bolder version named Remod which was created by Remco Memorials.
There are currently no versions available for purchase. If you would like help matching it, feel free to use the MLC Inscription Matching Service.
Hi Buckley, I’m unsure of this one at first glance. It has elements of Amerigo and other glyphic fonts, but I can’t say I’ve seen this font specifically before. I will need to do some searching around and get back to you.
Hi Rick, this is likely hand-drawn and hand-cut. Back in the 1920s there were only a couple of widespread options as far as reproducible lettering styles, though there were some companies that produced brass or paper letters that never gained much popularity.

Hi Torrey, this really depends on the software you are using to create the outline. There are not usually outlined versions of most fonts, so it usually needs to be done in design software, and not all software makes the process very easy.

Hello Kim, this appears to be a fairly modern typeface that I would place in the category of modern kitsch calligraphy. Unfortunately, there are hundreds upon hundreds of fonts in this style which can make them difficult to track down without significant time involved. Your best bet is likely going to be searching the main free font websites, or some of the less mainstream font resellers like creativemarket.com
