4. | Samuel Duard McLemore was born on 15 Feb 1908 in Erin, Jasper County, Texas (son of Thomas Franklin McLemore and Nancy "Nannie" Octavene Sims); died on 31 Mar 1977 in Beaumont, Jefferson County, Texas; was buried in Zion Hill Cemetery, Jasper, Jasper County, Texas. Notes:
SAMUEL DUARD McLEMORE: The Long and The Short of It.
T.F. McLemore lived at 2401 Forrest in Beaumont and Duard lived nearby. He drove past the house every day in his 1935 Ford, which had a very low seat. Duard was rather short, and so his head was also very low (in the car). One day, as he came around the corner headed for home, some person on the front porch (it may have been Emile's wife, Grace) exclaimed "There goes Duard's car, but where's Duard?"

Frank McLemore was a traveling salesman. When he made his rounds,one of the first customers he called on were Dale and Evon (McLemore) Tisdale, who had a General Store in Zavalla. He would use a mirror in the back of their store to shave before he called on the rest of his customers. He did this because he rose very early each morning, and didn't want to disturb his wife. He loved anything colored blue. He used unusual expressions, such as "Great Garden Seed" and "an elephant's plenty." He was called "Daddy Mac" by grandchildren. Affiliations: Masonic Lodge, Dewitt Clinton Chapter. Baptist Church. Hobbies: Gospel Music, gardening.
He and his wife served consecutive terms as Postmaster in Jasper County early in the century.
