Tennessee, Carroll County, ED 1
Enumerated 28 Aug 1850 G. C. Hurt
Stamped 7

At the time of the above referenced census, 22 year old Adkins McLemore, born in Tennessee, was a border in the home of Alfred and Purlney Manning, both age 45, and both born in North Carolina.

Could this be the Sugar Atkins found in Gibson County, TN on later census enumerations? Probably not, as the Sugar Atkin McLmeore, husband of Mary, that was on the 1900 Gibson County, TN census was born July 1863. Perhaps this was instead a namesake a son of Sugars and Mary Jane (Taylor) McLemore?

Sugars married Mary Jane Taylor on 28 Jul 1862 in Carroll County, Tennessee. Mary was born before 1842; and died. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

They appear to have been living with daughter, Jennie, at the time of the 1910 Federal Census, in Kiowa County, Oklahoma. Mark Freeman indicates this was their only child, which matches Martha's response to the 1900 and 1910 census.

Notes:

"James was with Forrest in the war between the states, and he was somewhat legendary, as I have heard some good stories about him. He was the strongest man in Tennessee, and could lift a bale of cotton. He was about 6'6" which was huge for those times. My grandmother was also 6' tall. I have a nice picture of his family group and also a pic of him and Margaret with him in his uniform. Sherry Connally Murray - Jackson, TN."

Notes:

She married a Mr. WARREN in Gibson County, Tennessee.

Notes:

His great grandson, Charles McLemore, reports that John married again after the death of Elizabeth Young. It is possible that this second wife was Annie Howell. He would have married her sometime after the 1890 census (when his youngest daughter by Elizabeth was born), and she likely either died or divorced him prior to 1900.

John married Elizabeth A. "Bettie" Young on 13 Apr 1874 in Carroll County, Tennessee. Elizabeth was born about 1845 in Mississippi; died after 1890. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

In 1880 he was single and working on the WATTS farm in Heaths, Gibson County, TN. On the census he was shown as age 57, when he was actually 27, and furthermore mistranscribed as Mcseviore versus McLemore.

He appears to have married first and second:

McLemore, J. A. m. Hogan, Louisa in 1877 Gibson County, TN

McLemore, J. A. m. Howell, Mary Jane in 1884 in Gibson County, TN (nee Langford, as she was said to have been previously married to Charles Howell)

Third marriage to Louella McCaslin.

The Rev. William P. McLemore shows that James died on 19 Apr 1938, and is buried in Medina, Gibson County, Tennessee. This matches the scan of his death certificate on his FindAGrave memorial page. His occupation was shown as "farmer" and his father as Charles McLemore, with mother not known. Informant was H. N. McLemor of Jackson, Tennessee.
