The Zachariah Dutton Genealogy Web, from which much of the information about Jesse A. McLemore and his children was copied, does NOT list Jesse's parents.

ASSUMED, but not proven, to be a son of Abner McLemore of Lawrence County, Alabama. There were male children that would fit within this age range at the time of the 1830 and 1840 Head of Household census enumerations of Lawrence County, Alabama for Abner McLemore.
