4. | William N. McLemore was born on 4 May 1873 in Alabama (son of Frank McLemore and Mary ???); died on 17 Dec 1947 in Carbon Hill, Fayette County, Alabama; was buried in Pleasant Grove Cemetery, Fayette County, Alabama. Notes:
Middle name said to be Newton.
Assumed, but not proven, to be a brother of John C. McLemore, the husband of Medina Loue "Dena" Swindle? They lived near each other at the time of the 1900 census, and were listed as adjacent families as of the 1910 census. Both census enumerations were in Walker County, Alabama.
The transcribed info on his FindAGrave memorial page instead has his year of birth as 1873. A photo of his marker shows this same year of birth, and also has an inscription indiciating he was a member of the Church of Christ for 35 years.
The Alabama, Deaths and Burial Index, 1881-1974 shows that Willie N. McLemore, born ca 1873 and died 17 Dec 1947 in Carbon Hill, Fayette, Alabama was the son of Frank and Martha McLemore.
Could this couple be his parents?

8. | Frank McLemore was born about 1845 in Alabama; and died. Notes:
Thought to be the same Frank McLemore that was the father of William N. McLemore (b. 1873 Alabama) who lived in Carbon Hill, Walker County, Alabama at the time of the 1900 census through 1940 census (though listing not found for 1920). The Alabama, Deaths and Burial Index, 1881-1974 shows that Willie N. McLemore, born ca 1873 and died 17 Dec 1947 in Carbon Hill, Fayette (sic), Alabama was the son of Frank and Martha McLemore. It also appears that William McLemore of Carbon Hill was a brother of John Edward McLemore of Carbon Hill, Alabama.
