      FindAGrave also links an additional daughter, Corina Victoria McLemore (1884-1902) to them. She is also buried at the Oak Grove Baptist Church Cemetety in Meridian. This should be verified due to the significant gap in time between her birth and her older siblings, as well as the age (46) of Mary Jane McShan McLemore at the time of Corina's birth. Finally, a Corina McLemore, born Feb 1884 per census records, was living in Lauderdale County, Mississippi in the home of William F. McLemore and Alice Shackleford.
