    Notes:

    The Texas Death certificate of his eldest child, Velma McCarrell Lakey, indicates he was born in Dallas County, Texas. This matches the information he supplied when he completed his registration for the Draft during World War I. He was a resident of Choctaw County, Oklahoma at the time (June 1917), and indicated that he was married, was a self employed Farmer, and was Tall, of medium build, with hazel eyes and light brown hair. The Social Security Death Index indicates his last residence of record was New Mexico.

He said his father was John McLemore, or Knoxville, Tennessee, and his grandfather Henery McLemore, "originally from Ireland."
