6. | Maclin B. "Bass" McLemore was born about 1805 in Tennessee (son of Burwell McLemore, Jr. and Mary Glover); died between 1864 and 1870 in Alabama. Notes:
"One day [John McLemore]...was with his Uncle Maclin Bass McLemore in Rogersville. Maclin was a pilot on the Shoals. The Shoals, being a treacherous body of water and rapids, took a skilled person to navigate. That fateful day John and Maclin were captured by the army. Thinking John was too young (he was 15); he was told to go home and tell his aunt what had happened to her husband. Legend has it that Maclin was never heard from again." (The Heritage of Lauderdale County, Alabama, p. 347).
He built a dogtrot house with one side log and the other frame, surrounded by large trees and log dependencies in an ideal rural setting. When Maclin McLemore returned from the ardous task of piloting boats over the treacherouse Tennessee River Shoals, he liked to prop his feet up in comfort. He found that comfortable place in the story-and-a-half dogtrot house which he built around the time of his marriage in 1843. (The Lure and Lore of Limestone County, p. 147)

It is noted that Nancy and her children were ALSO enumerated on the Lauderdale County census dated 18 July 1870. Perhaps they lived on/near the border and were counted twice? Or lived part time in both locations? For whatever reason, here is the second listing. Note the slight difference in the children's ages, PLUS an additional child (Ulisses, female?, age 4) being shown:

Generation: 4
12. | Burwell McLemore, Jr. was born about 1770 in Virginia (son of Burwell McLemore, Sr. and Amy Gilliam); died after 22 Jan 1851 in Rogersville, Lauderdale County, Alabama. 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.
