    Albert married Sarah Matilda Page on 17 Feb 1864 in Copiah County, Mississippi. Sarah was born between 1833 and 1837 in South Carolina; died after 1900 in Texas. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]


  2. 5.  Sarah Matilda Page was born between 1833 and 1837 in South Carolina; died after 1900 in Texas.

    Notes:

    Patrick E. Roper and Kay & Nicole Martin (salome@main.com) both show her as the daughter of Abraham PAGE (b. ca 1790 NC and died after 1845 Barnwell County, S. C. and Sarah McLEMORE (born ca 1795 S.C. and Died probably in Copiah County, Mississippi)

    At the time of the 1870 Copiah County, Mississippi census, 33 year old Matilda McLemore born in South Carolina, was living in the home of 69 year old Sarah Hendry of North Carolina. Matilda McLemore was listed as the Housekeeper. Also living in the home were 5 year old Sidney McLemore and 13 year old Mary. Both Mary and Sidney were born in Mississippi.

    Patrick Roper emailed, on August 16, 2007, that "Charles Luther Willis W. McLemore 1809 South Carolina died before 1864 Copiah Co., MS. married about 1853 SC Sarah Matilda Page Mar. 1837 Barnwell Co., SC. died after 1864 Rockport , Copiah Co., MS. four children she was the daughter of Abraham Page & Sarah McLemore . two of her children were Mary Emaline McLemore 13 Oct. 1856 Rockport , MS. died 31 May 1935 Paxton , Shelby Co., Texas married 21 Aug. 1873 Copiah Co., MS. James Madison Cammack 29 Nov. 1840 Copiah Co., MS. died 10 Sept. 1922 Paxton, TX. ( James Douglas Cammack & Lucretia Ann Corley ) #2 Adaline M. McLemore Sept. 1854 Copiah Co., MS. died after 1900 Shelby Co., TX. married 20 Nov. 1871 Copiah Co., MS. Edmund W. Corley 18 April 1819 Copiah Co., MS. died 1 Dec. 1892 Shelby Co., TX. ( Seth M. Corley & Temperance P."Tempy" Strahan ) I got most of this online so I do not have proof references , but I believe it to be accurate."

    Nicole Martin also shows that Matilda married second AGB Womack. They had Albert Sidney, but he was raised a McLemore and she also went back to using that name by 1870. AGB Womack left Matilda in Mississippi and went to Louisiana, where he apparently married Sarah Ann Matthew and had four children, and then married Catherine Rollins on 4 May 1882 and had at least five other children.

    Alternatively shown by many researchers as a daughter of Matthew McLemore and Anne Bailey.

    Matthew McLemore was born possibly in Tennessee and married Anne Bailey in Augusta Georgia. He is noted also in Montgomery County, Georgia as well as Edgefield District, South Carolina. Matthew died in 1820 leaving behind his wife Anne and children Sarah Page, Willis McLemore, John McLemore, Elizabeth McLemore, Anne McLemore, and Joel McLemore. At this point, we have been unable to link Matthew to the McLemore line, but it is suspected he is closely related to Major John McLemore of Richmond District. We are looking closely at the line(s) of McLemores that ended up in Copiah County and surrounding counties in Misssissippi. Suspected brothers include John and Howell who were listed in 1810 census in Barnwell. Another interesting group is James C, John, and Joel who were brothers in which James C wrote a will the day before Matthew's listed death. Although Sarah moved on and we do not have information on Elizabeth and Anne, we know that the children of Willis, John, and Joel could still be found in Barnwell and/or Aiken Counties South Carolina.

    Abraham Page and Sarah McLemore of Barnwell District/County, South Carolina were parents of 10 children with known connections to Marion County, Georgia; Copiah County, Mississippi; and Shelby, San Augustine, Sabine, and Nacogdoches Counties in Texas (amongst probably others). Abraham may be the son of Jacob Page and a first wife. Children by Lourania mainly ended up in De Kalb County, Tennessee. There is the family story of Jacob Page being associated with Roger Williams, the founder of Rhode Island. His son Amos is said to have married Hortence Pohautus. Originally, the story had this as the father of Abraham Page (apparently both the elder and the younger), but timeline does not allow this. Suspected brothers for Abraham include Isaac (no info), Thomas (found one notation), Samuel, and James. Looking also at Marion Co Pages.

    Nicole Martin posted the following to the Genforum McLemore Surname board:

    I have Reuben as son of John McLemore. Siblings, if correct, are Robert, Wesley,Reuben, Matthew, John, and Dorcus. There may be more sisters. I find John McLemore in Hinds County in 1830 and Rankin County in 1840. I believe he is the John McLemore listed in the 1810 and 1820 census in Barnwell District, SC. I also do not believe this is the son of Major John McLemore. I believe that his brothers (at least) were Howell and Matthew (see 1810 Barnwell Census). One of Matthew's grandsons, Howell W came to Hinds County to marry and then later returned to Barnwell. Later, Matthew's daughter Sarah Page moves to Copiah County. I believe Howell is the one that ended up in Emanuel County, GA.

    (Research):This may be Sarah Matilda, with her widowed mother and siblings, at the time of the 1850 Federal Census. Many researchers have her dob as Mar 1837, but the census record below shows she may have been born as early as 1833.
