Jane A. "Xan" Alexander emailed, in November 2011, that Margaret "Peggy" Dabney was a daughter of John Dabney and Peggy Smith, and sister to the Bethenia Dabney, who later married Peggy's stepson, Atkins Jefferson McLemore.

Margaret married Robert M. McLemore on 8 Jun 1812 in Williamson County, Tennessee. Robert (son of Atkins McLemore and Sarah Jones) was born on 30 Nov 1769 in Bute County, North Carolina; died on 20 Jan 1823 in Williamson County, Tennessee. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
