Generation: 1

  1. 1.  Hessie Pearl McLemore was born in Aug 1889 in Gibson County, Tennessee (daughter of James Alfred McLemore and Mary Jane Langford); died about 1972 in Tennessee; was buried in Hopewell Cemetery, Medina, Gibson County, Tennessee.

    Family/Spouse: Ernest Lee Clevenger. Ernest was born on 19 Feb 1887 in Jackson, Madison County, Tennessee; died about 1951 in Tennessee; was buried in Hopewell Cemetery, Medina, Gibson County, Tennessee. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]


Generation: 2

  1. 2.  James Alfred McLemore was born on 6 Dec 1852 in Tennessee (son of Charles McLemore and Sarah A. McFarlin); died on 19 Apr 1938 in Medina, Gibson County, Tennessee; was buried in Hopewell Cemetery, Medina, Gibson County, Tennessee.

    Notes:

    In 1880 he was single and working on the WATTS farm in Heaths, Gibson County, TN. On the census he was shown as age 57, when he was actually 27, and furthermore mistranscribed as Mcseviore versus McLemore.

    He appears to have married first and second:

    McLemore, J. A. m. Hogan, Louisa in 1877 Gibson County, TN

    McLemore, J. A. m. Howell, Mary Jane in 1884 in Gibson County, TN (nee Langford, as she was said to have been previously married to Charles Howell)

    Third marriage to Louella McCaslin.

    The Rev. William P. McLemore shows that James died on 19 Apr 1938, and is buried in Medina, Gibson County, Tennessee. This matches the scan of his death certificate on his FindAGrave memorial page. His occupation was shown as "farmer" and his father as Charles McLemore, with mother not known. Informant was H. N. McLemor of Jackson, Tennessee.

    Notes:

    AKA McFarland




    (Research):

    This was thought be her obituary, but this is unlikely. Census records seem to indicate she died between 1860 and 1870. Census records should first be examined to see if this is a good fit. Dickson County was adjacent to Williamson County, Tennessee.

    The Dickson County Herald of Dickson, TN, dated Friday, January 22, 1909:
    After a brief illness Mrs. Sallie McLemore, mother of J. P. McLemore, proprietor of the McLemore Hotel, died at the home of her son, here, at an early hour Wednesday morning aged 80 years. The remains were conveyed Wednesday to Flatwoods, Wayne County, the former home of the deceased, where they were interred Thursday. Deceased was an excellent woman and her long life was replete with noble deeds.
