Richard married Elizabeth M. "Ellie" Hobbs about 1891. Elizabeth was born in May 1870 in Tennessee; died on 19 Nov 1939 in Blanche, Lincoln County, Tennessee. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

Said to be the daughter of John W. and Elizabeth HOBBS.

Notes:

"He was raised around Rogersville, Ala. During the Confederate draft, he and others were held at a particular farm. All the prisoner "draftees" carried fodder from the barn to sleep on. Going upstairs, so the story goes, Mac threw his fodder down on the guard and headed for the Coldwater area. This is how the McLemores were supposedly established in Lincoln County. Mac was blind in later years and terrified of storms. Thunder would send him to hide in the basement." From the ANCESTORS OF STUART DAVID CHILDRESS

Maclin married Iris Belvara "Bill" Derah Greenville Winsett on 6 Nov 1854 in Limestone County, Alabama. Iris was born on 18 Nov 1827 in Alabama; died before 1920 in Lincoln County, Tennessee. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

Notes:

Norma Miller (Nmiller896@aol.com) emailed, on 9-17-2006: "I descend through Briggs, his son Burl, his grandson John Melvin and my father, Earl Leonard McLemore. My parents live in Athens, Limestone County, AL and I live in Huntsville, Madison County, AL. I'm not sure all the children were mentioned in a will, or even if there was one, but they were mentioned in an estate inventory. Burrell was about 80 years old when they moved to Alabama and his wife had him give all the land and slaves to their children. When he died there wasn't enough money left to settle his debts. I would assume that he had already given property to children of his first marriage. Burrell was probably well-to-do as he was very active in the slave trade in the Nashville area. If there is anything else I can help with just let me know."
