Notes:

She married Sam JOHNSON. At the time of the 1900 census, she was living with her brother and sister in law, Britain and Minnie McLemore, in Shelby County, Tennessee. She was shown as Widowed, with her date of birth shown as February 18, 1850. She was in their household in 1910 as well, listed as Lidie Johnson, sister, widowed. She was not with the family as of 1920 or 1930, so likely she died sometime before 1920.

Notes:

John David McLemore, a descendant of Britain Sanders McLemore, Sr., emailed in July 2010 that he had a clipping of an obituary of James Sugars McLemore. The clipping was not dated, nor did it reference the paper it was from. He indicated that "James Sugars McLemore (who was a PhD in Philosophy and a professor in Latin and Greek at the University of Virginia and the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga) --- was born in Jackson, TN in 1883 but it doesn't say when he died--- I'm guessing it was around 1930 though because it says he was survived by his father [who died in 1934] and it lists his last teaching position hire date as 1928."

His dissertation, published by the University of Virginia in 1917, was entitled "The Tradition of the Latin Accent."

[Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

The Barksdale Family History and Genealogy website states that she married Andrew George Crouch of Georgia on 12 Jan 1919, and that they were the parents of Andrew George Crouch Jr (b. 1919) and Mary Virginia Crouch (b. 1921).

Bessie married Andrew George Crouch on 12 Jan 1919 in Dyer County, Tennessee. Andrew was born on 2 Apr 1888 in Georgia; died in Dec 1970. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

According to an email from John David McLemore, his grandfather, Thomas Barksdale McLemore " ----migrated to New York after graduating from Southwestern University at Memphis and receiving a scholarship for his masters degree at Columbia University in Manhattan. He was in WW2 as a lieutenant of a supply transport ship in the Pacific. When he came home he found work as an accountant at Metro Media, the precursor of Fox TV. My dad says that he was well liked there because he knew about computers, which in the 50s and 60s was an extremely new and intimidating technology. He died of a heart attack at his desk in 1990. He loved the outdoors and was an Adirondack 46er, which means he climbed all 46 of the Adirondack Mountains in upper NY. My dad is also a 46er. One day I'll get around to it too I hope. My dad doesn't really know much about the family history as my grandfather was a very quiet man. I think it runs in the family.

Thomas B. McLemore Married 2 times, but I'm not sure of his first wife's name. His second wife was Barbara June Wilson b. 1918 in Oakland,CA (a distant relation to Edna Wilson).

Family/Spouse: Barbara June Wilson. Barbara was born about 1918 in Oakland, Alameda County, California; and died. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
