Notes:

"He was raised around Rogersville, Ala. During the Confederate draft, he and others were held at a particular farm. All the prisoner "draftees" carried fodder from the barn to sleep on. Going upstairs, so the story goes, Mac threw his fodder down on the guard and headed for the Coldwater area. This is how the McLemores were supposedly established in Lincoln County. Mac was blind in later years and terrified of storms. Thunder would send him to hide in the basement." From the ANCESTORS OF STUART DAVID CHILDRESS

Notes:

Norma Miller (Nmiller896@aol.com) emailed, on 9-17-2006: "I descend through Briggs, his son Burl, his grandson John Melvin and my father, Earl Leonard McLemore. My parents live in Athens, Limestone County, AL and I live in Huntsville, Madison County, AL. I'm not sure all the children were mentioned in a will, or even if there was one, but they were mentioned in an estate inventory. Burrell was about 80 years old when they moved to Alabama and his wife had him give all the land and slaves to their children. When he died there wasn't enough money left to settle his debts. I would assume that he had already given property to children of his first marriage. Burrell was probably well-to-do as he was very active in the slave trade in the Nashville area. If there is anything else I can help with just let me know."

Marriage Record:

Briggs McLemore Spouse:Mary Stegall Marriage Date:18 Sep 1833 County:Lauderdale State:Alabama Performed By Title:Justice of the Peace Performed by Name:J G Fields Source information:Jordan Dodd, Liahona Research

The Heritage of Lauderdale County, Alabama instead shows the year of their marriage as 1832, and lists their ten children as Eliza, married James GREEN and lived in Lincoln County, TN; McLin Bass married Iris Belle WINSETT, Richard McLemore married Mary LANDMON, Nancy Ann McLemore married George THOMAS and lived in Lincoln County, TN. Burwell McLemore married Martha SHOEMAKER and lived in Limestone County, AL. Martha McLemore married a DARBY in Lincoln Co, TN. James McLemore may have married a PARVIN in Colbert Co, AL and John William McLemore married Angeline HOLBERT, Josephine McLemore married H.D. GRIFFIS in Lincoln County, TN and William McLemore married Ellen HUGHES. (page 346).

Notes:

Burwell's third son (at least his third to move away) was his namesake Burwell McLemore Jr. Born not later than about 1770, he married Mary GLOVER, daughter of Jones Glover Sr. pursuant to a marriage bond made out November 6, 1794 (Sussex Marriage Register, p. 75). Mary was the mother of his older children, but at least five of more of his fifteen children were by his second wife, Nancy. He may have lived in Ohio for a while, as his eldest son Robert J. is said to have been born there in 1795. He then moved to North Carolina where his second son Howell was born in 1801. He apparently moved to Tennessee shortly thereafter, as his third son Briggs M. McLemore was born there about 1803. At this point the sources are confusingly in conflict. It is generally held that Burwell moved to Lauderdale County, Alabama, where his fourth son Maclin H. McLemore was born in about 1804. However, U.S. Census records apparently put him still in Giles County, Tennessee, as late as 1820; perhaps he returned there for some reason. At any rate, then came two girls, Barbary in 1805, and Mary J. in 1808. The order of the births for the next several children is uncertain; a possible listing of them: ??? McLemore House (ca. 1810), Martin A.P McLemore (ca. 1812), Sarah McLemore Lambert (ca. 1815), and Margaret McLemore Marks (ca. 1818). Perhaps one or two, perhaps more, of these four were children of his second wife.

Burwell died within a year of this Census (1850-1851), as a suit was brought in Lauderdale County court, July term, 1851, for sale of his lands, in which his heirs were named as parties. The married names of some of Burwell's daughters were obtained from these papers. In addition, the spouses of several children are also generally known, Robert married Ruthea THORNBERRY in 1832 and Howell married her sister Mildred in 1828, Briggs married Mary SPIGAL or STEGAL in 1833, MACLIN married Nancy HALBERT in 1843; Mary J. married Gabriel DAVIS in 1827, Sarah married James LAMBERT, Margaret married Henry MARKS, and Barbary married a man named POTEET. (James L. McLemore, III. pp 76-77).

In "The Heritage of Lauderdale County, Alabama," the Alabama State Plat Book, page 43, is cited, showing that Burwell had purchased 160 acres on May 23, 1828. His land was West of Elk River T3S R7W NW Sec 11. Burwell and his family were among the oldest settlers to come to Lauderdale County, and he lived (in Lauderdale) until his death. On Feb. 21, 1840, he purchased 210 acres from Martin Harkins. This land was also in range 7, T3 sec 15 which is close to Elk River at Rogersville. The book further states that Burwell left a will in Lauderdale Co dated July 1, 1844 naming six living children by his second marriage as well as six living children by his first marriage. He is believed to be buried in the Womack cemetery in Rogersville. This cemetery is believed to to be on some of the land he owned.
