6. | Maj. Amos McLemore was born on 23 Aug 1827 in Mississippi (son of John McLemore and Anna Maria Yates); died on 5 Oct 1863 in Ellisville, Jones County, Mississippi; was buried in McLemore Cemetery, Forrest County, Mississippi. Notes:
Henry Lee writes that the Leaf River Baptist Minutes show that Amos McLemore was baptised on June 20, 1830. Minutes show he became a leader in the church, a close affiliated of the Providence Baptist Church now in Forrest County, Mississippi.
The following Biographical information was excerpted from Everett Roy Hammond's complilation titled MAJOR AMOS McLEMORE, Published by the Jones Co. Genealogical & Historical Organization, Laurel, MS, 2002.
"Amos moved with his family to Perry County, Mississippi [around 1836] when they settled on the old homeplace out from Estabuchie. At the time of his marriage to his cousin, Rosa Lavinia McLemore, Amos was a Methodist-Episcopal minister in the Leaf River Circuit encompassing Jones and Perry counties. He was also working as a school teach in Ellisville where he and Rosa lived. How long Major McLemore worked as a teacher and minister is not known. The 1860 census gives his occupation as "merchant." He was engaged in the merchantile business with Dr. John McCormick Bayliss near the old Bayliss home, on the west side of the Leaf River and west of Eastabutchie, MS. John Bayliss was a son of wealthy slaveholder and Methodist minister, George Bayliss. This is the same John Bayliss who was a secessionist candidate in the Jones County election held Dec. 20, 1861. His opponent was John H. Powell, Jr. a Unionist candidate. It is known that Amos was involved in land speculation during this period and had increased both his wealth and status. Thus at the beginning of the War Between the States, Amos and Rosa were quite prosperous. They owned at least 700 acres of land and a half interest in the mercantile business. However, like the majority of most Southerners, Amos's wife apparently lost almost everything during the War except the land, site of the old homeplace, which Amos's mother, Anna Maria, had inherited from her husband John when he died in 1854.
Confederate law provided for receipt of organized units as well as individual recruits into military service. Amos McLemore wrote the Confederate States President, Jefferson Davis, requesting permission to raise a company on May 27, 1861. Permission was granted, and on August 10, 1861, the company raised by McLemore was enlisted in Ellisville, Jones County, Mississippi. McLemore called his company the Rosinheels (sometimes written as Rosin Heels) and that is the name that appears on the first muster roll of the company. It was eventually replaced by the official designation, Company B, 27th Mississippi Infantry Regiment. The original 99 officers and men were drawn primarily from Jones and Perry counties. They marched from Ellisville to Marion Station, Lauderdale County where they were mustered into service on September 10, 1861 and Amos was commissioned as Captain.
The Rosinheels were first sent to Pensacola, Florida and assigned to the defense of Fort McRee. In 1862, they were sent by train to Chattanooga, Tennessee. Some six weeks after their arrival they, along with the rest of Bragg's command, embarked to Perryville, Kentucky and on Oct. 8, 1862 some 16,000 Confederate troops engaged and defeated a Yankee army of 60,000 men. The battle of Perryville is remember for its intensity and fury and lasted only about six hours. At the end of the day, some 7,5000 men on both sides were dead, wounded or missing. Half of the Rosinheels were either killed or wounded, with Capt. McLemore himself seriously wounded. In late December, barely recovered from their last battle, the 27th Mississippi Regiment was ordered to form a line of battle before Murfreesboro, flanking to the right of Walthall's Brigade in an open field swept both by freezing rain and intense Union artillery and rifle fire. Virtually two-thirds of the Confederate's effective foreces were destroyed on a piece of ground less than an acre in size. In spite of this, they swept the Union troops back 1200 yards, caputuring six artillery pieces and an entire company of Union Sharpshooters. Many men were sent to the rear suffering form exhaustion and exposure, but Capt. McLemore remained in command of the Rosin Heels throughout the engagement. After the battle, their duty consisted mainly of working on fortification and patrolling roads facing the enemy. On March 26, 1863, Amos McLemore was promoted to the rank of Major and third in command of the 27th Regiment. In July, 1863, his regiment, along with the rest of Walthall's Brigade, was sent to Atlanta to protect the supply depots and ordinance shops there from the Union Army.
Maj. Amos McLemore's temporary and final assignment for the confederacy was not on the battlefield. Gettysburg and Vicksburg had been lost with an appalling number of casualities.The Confederate forces were in desparate need of men to replace those they had already lost. In mid-August, 1863, McLemore was sent by General Bragg to return to the area in which his original regiment had been raised in order to both encourage new enlistment and to return stragglers to the ranks of their regiment. He was to persuade if possible, and compel if necessary, the return to service of the large number of deserters and stragglers in the area. With the help of an Amnesty offer from General Bragg, Major McLemore had had considerable success, and was known to have returned some 119 soldiers to battlefield. However, on October 5, 1863 his mission and his life was cut short by fatal shots reported to be fired by Newt Knight. Maj. McLemore died in the home of State Representative Amos Deason's home in Ellisville, Mississippi, surrounded by his officers and good friends. Newt Knight was said to have have confessed his complicity in the crime to his son, Thomas Jefferson Knight. In a much later interview with Meigs Frost, he stated that "We stayed out in the woods minding our own business until the Confederate Army began sending raiders after us like bloodhounds...then we saw we had to fight." No individual, however, was ever charged with McLemore's murder, and no one was prosecuted, no official justice ever rendered. Newt Knight died as an old man of ninety-two years of age in 1922.
His Tombstone reads: "Major Amos McLemore, 27th Regt. Miss. Volunteers, C.S.A. Born Aug. 23, 1823, Assassinated while in the discharge of his duties as a Soldier, Sept 14, 1863. He was a bright Mason, a devoted Confederate Soldier, and a M.E. Minister." An inscription on the base of the marker reads "By Leaf River Lodge No. 19, A.F. and A. Mason."
A government issue flat confederate marker is also located at the foot of his grave. The date of death on the tombstone contradicts the one found in his official military records, and is therefore assumed to be incorrect. The date of birth also is about four years earlier than census records would indicate. It appears he may have actually been born in August 1827.

Amos married Rosa Lavinia McLemore about 1850. Rosa (daughter of Josiah McLemore and Sarah Jane Fairchild) was born about 1831 in Jones County, Mississippi; died about 1900 in Perry County, Mississippi; was buried in McLemore Cemetery, Forrest County, Mississippi. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

7. | Rosa Lavinia McLemore was born about 1831 in Jones County, Mississippi (daughter of Josiah McLemore and Sarah Jane Fairchild); died about 1900 in Perry County, Mississippi; was buried in McLemore Cemetery, Forrest County, Mississippi. Notes:
When her husband was killed in 1863, Rosa was left with five children, all under the age of 12. She never remarried and remained focused on her family's survival during the desperate times of the Reconstruction. After the war she moved her family to Copiah County, MS and engaged in land speculation with her brother, John Thomas McLemore. By 1878 she had moved her family back to Perry County. The 1880 US Census lists Rosa with all her children living in the same household except daughter Sebelle R who had married Abraham L. FAIRCHILD. Here in Perry (now Forrest) County, Rosa lived out her life until she died believed to be after 1900 on the old John McLemore property and was buried in the family cemetery.

10. | Moses McLemore was born about 1787 in South Carolina (son of Amos McLemore and Equilla ???); died on 18 Mar 1857 in Copiah County, Mississippi. Notes:
Paraphrased from "Ole Rosinheels" Moses and brother Richard McLemore were born in SC, and probably moved from Giles Co., TN to Wayne Co., MS at the end of hostilities in the War of 1812. They settled in that part of Wayne County which, in 1819, became Covington County and, still later, in 1826, became Jones County. They were both listed in the 1816 census of Wayne County, but neither was on the 1810 census of the same area. They settled in the Leaf River country of what is now Jones, Perry, Forrest and Covington counties, in south-eastern Mississippi. They lived in close proximity, and John McLemore joined them in 1820. In 1836, Richard moved to Lauderdale County.
The following transcription is courtesy of Melba Gene McLemore, and relates to the military service of Moses during the Creek War:

Moses married Nancy Vinnie Batiste between 1810 and 1815. Nancy was born about 1794 in Mississippi; died on 31 Aug 1868 in Mississippi. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
|
11. | Nancy Vinnie Batiste was born about 1794 in Mississippi; died on 31 Aug 1868 in Mississippi. Notes:
According to Merritt Mullen, her maiden name is variously shown as Batiste, Baptiste, Battiece. ...
Merritt writes that Nancy (Vinnie) Batiste is believed to be a Choctaw Indian, probably born in the territory of Mississippi (census records indicate she was born in South Carolina, but there are no Batiste families there). A tradition in different branches of the Fairchild family says her grandchildren are 1/4 Indian, and the early Choctaw Indian rolls for Mississippi show Indian families using the surname of "Batiste" (with various spellings such as Battist, Battiese, Battice, Bapten). The name is also found among the Choctaws who migrated to Oklahoma Indian Territory.
"Batiste" is a variant spelling of the French name "Baptiste" (as in the common name "Jean Baptiste", or John the Baptist). The Baptistes were prominent early settlers of the Gulf Coast around what is now Mobile, Alabama. Jean Baptiste (dit Graveline) Baudreau came from Montreal (Canada) to the Gulf Coast with the brothers d'Iberville and Bienville, sent by King Louis XV to build Fort Louis and explore the Gulf Coast to protect the huge holdings (Louisiana Purchase area). It was in 1699/1700 that Jean Baptiste Baudreau came to the Pascaqoula/Bay St. Louis area on the Gulf Coast.
The family history of the descendants of Jean Baptiste Beaudreau indicates it was common for the male descendants to have both a French and an Indian wife, and children with both of them. A grandson of the first settler, Jean Batiste Baudreau, Pierre Baptiste (also called Pedro, during the Spanish era on the Gulf Coast) was probably 1/4 Indian and 3/4 French. He married a Choctaw Indian and had a daughter by her named Michou Jenny (or Jincy) Batiste (or Battiest), who married Daniel Anderson. It is possible that a brother of Jenny was the father of Nancy Vinnie Baptiste. If Nancy's mother was a full-blood Choctaw, then Nancy would be 3/16 French and 13/16 Indian.
Nancy was living in Copiah County, Mississippi with her son, John, at the time of the 1860 Census.
Larry Kingsley & Merritt Mullen both note that she died in Scott County, Mississippi.
Notes:
Married:
May also be the parents of an Elizabeth McLemroe, born 1820 and married James Lowery of the Cherokee Nation East. (MaryLynn Santa and Mark Freeman both reference her, but neither William McLemore or April Makerney have her listed).
|
12. | John McLemore was born on 2 Sep 1793 in South Carolina (son of Amos McLemore and Equilla ???); died about 1854 in Perry County, Mississippi; was buried in McLemore Cemetery, Forrest County, Mississippi. Notes:
From his first years in Perry county, John McLemore paid taxes on 560 acres of land, up to 40 head of cattle, three slaves and a ferry which he operated on the Leaf River. At the time of his death, his large estate was divided among his heirs. His wife and daughter Elmyra shared about 880 acres between them. It is unknown what the other children received.
