  1. 12.  George Hiram McLemore was born about 1842 in Mississippi (son of Amos McLemore, Jr. and Elizabeth Johnston); and died.

    Notes:

    April Makerney's notes show that George married Louisa MOORE, and that both died in the mid 1870's. This appears to be correct as four of their five children were enumerated with I.B. and Jane MOORE as of the 1880 Clarke County, Mississippi census.
