William McLemore
William McLemore, 63, lifetime Princeton resident died Sunday at 6:15 p.m. in Gibson General Hospital after a short illness. Mr. McLemore was born February 28, 1906 in Temple, Ind. in Crawford County. He had been a Cab driver for City Cab the past 20 years. He attended the House of Prayer. Mr. McLemore was member of VFW 1147 and a Veteran of World War II. Surviving are his wife, Laura McLemore; one daughter, Mrs. Anita Beard of Princeton; two sons, Jim McLemore and William Shoulders both of Princeton; one brother, Guy McLemore of Oak Ridge, Tenn. and 2 grandchildren. Services will be held Wednesday at 2 p.m. at Colvin Chapel with Rev. James Miller officiating. Friends may call at Colvin & Son Mortuary after 3 p.m. Tuesday.

On his application for a Social Security account, completed on August 27, 1937, he listed his date of birth as February 28, 1907 in Temple, Indiana. It is assumed this date is more accurate, as it was completed by William himself, than the date in his obituary. His parents were shown as Wright McLemore and Sarah Longust. His employer at that time was Thomas Christian of Princeton.

William married Laura Ann Acree. Laura (daughter of James Madison Acree and Angeline Rice Allison) was born on 1 Jul 1912 in Shoals, Martin County, Indiana; died on 16 Sep 2005 in Princeton, Gibson County, Indiana; was buried in Columbia Church Cemetery, Princeton, Gibson County, Indiana. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

Paul Williams indicates he appears to have later settled in Lafayette, Indiana, and is listed on the 1900 and 1910 census in Crawford Co., Indiana living next door to his Grandfather's half-brother Mack Tyree----his name is listed as McLamore. His death information was recorded in Bk H 42 Pg 78.

John married Nancy Ann Kirby on 4 Mar 1855 in Rockcastle County, Kentucky. Nancy was born about 1836 in Kentucky; died after 1910 in Rockcastle County, Kentucky. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

Paul Williams notes that "Nancy Ann is daughter of Thomas Kirby [also of Rockcastle Co.] please note the surname Kirby is [sic] Curby in some of earlier census records." He later added that Nancy's mother was Elizabeth Ecton/Acton.

Paul showed her as born ca 1836 in Kentucky. The 1900 census shows her instead as born in May 1840, also in Kentucky.

She was living with her son Thomas G. McLemore and his family at the time of the 1910 Rockcastle, Kentucky census. She was listed as age 73, widowed, the mother of 8 children all still living, and born in Kentucky to parents also born in Kentucky.

Notes:

Married:
Paul Williams writes that "John D. & Nancy Ann [Kirby] McLemore ---appear {as you have} in 18880 census, and they also are mentioned in a land transaction in Rockcastle Co., KY dated 1883: hence, their death after 1883?"
