Martha J. McLemore

Notes:

Email from Maggie on November 9, 2011: James Thomas McLemore married into the Cotton family. I wrote a book entitled "The Cotton Family of Northern Virginia" Volume 4 - Elizabeth Cotton and John Batsell Family last year. Elizabeth and John Batsell's daughter, Elizabeth, was married to William Summers. Elizabeth and William Summer's daughter, Sarah Jane, married James Thomas McLemore. That correction was made in reference to that book so that other could locate James and Sarah in the 1870 census as referenced in the book. I traced James and Sarah's children for a couple of generations but no major research on the McLemore family."

It is not know with certainty if Joseph is a son or grandson. As there was an 8 year gap between he and Sarah, and as Rachel would have been age 51 at the time of this birth, it is likely that he is not their son.

Note: after Joseph's name, the following notation was made and circled. It was on the very last line of the page ("Omitted 8 lines).

Joel married Rachel Stinson on 1 Mar 1829 in Logan County, Kentucky. Rachel was born between 1805 and 1808 in Kentucky; died after 1880 in Kentucky. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

"Moved to Tennesse where he raised a large family."

Joel married Temperence "Tempe" Goodwyn. Temperence was born before 1778; and died. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
