John Edward McLemore

Notes:

Thought, but not proven, to be the brother of William McLemore, the husband of Leona Bridges? They lived near each other at the time of the 1900 census, and were listed as adjacent families as of the 1910 census. Both census enumerations were in Walker County, Alabama.

On the "Weddle Family Tree" on Ancestry.com, he is shown as John Edward McLemore, a son of Frank M. McLemore and Mary Anne Hussey, and grandson of Calvin and Martha McLemore, and great grandson of Wilson McLemore. John's siblings are shown as Martha, William Newton McLemore (b. 1873), and Mary Elizabeth.

Not proven, so more research should be done.

Notes:

Thought to be the same Frank McLemore that was the father of William N. McLemore (b. 1873 Alabama) who lived in Carbon Hill, Walker County, Alabama at the time of the 1900 census through 1940 census (though listing not found for 1920). The Alabama, Deaths and Burial Index, 1881-1974 shows that Willie N. McLemore, born ca 1873 and died 17 Dec 1947 in Carbon Hill, Fayette (sic), Alabama was the son of Frank and Martha McLemore. It also appears that William McLemore of Carbon Hill was a brother of John Edward McLemore of Carbon Hill, Alabama.
