David married Mary Catherine "Nina" Weaver before 1870. Mary was born about 1850 in Alabama; and died. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

Is this Catherine Weaver, or a third wife? Or are the census listings for a different David M. McLemore.

Notes:

Burwell's third son (at least his third to move away) was his namesake Burwell McLemore Jr. Born not later than about 1770, he married Mary GLOVER, daughter of Jones Glover Sr. pursuant to a marriage bond made out November 6, 1794 (Sussex Marriage Register, p. 75). Mary was the mother of his older children, but at least five of more of his fifteen children were by his second wife, Nancy. He may have lived in Ohio for a while, as his eldest son Robert J. is said to have been born there in 1795. He then moved to North Carolina where his second son Howell was born in 1801. He apparently moved to Tennessee shortly thereafter, as his third son Briggs M. McLemore was born there about 1803. At this point the sources are confusingly in conflict. It is generally held that Burwell moved to Lauderdale County, Alabama, where his fourth son Maclin H. McLemore was born in about 1804. However, U.S. Census records apparently put him still in Giles County, Tennessee, as late as 1820; perhaps he returned there for some reason. At any rate, then came two girls, Barbary in 1805, and Mary J. in 1808. The order of the births for the next several children is uncertain; a possible listing of them: ??? McLemore House (ca. 1810), Martin A.P McLemore (ca. 1812), Sarah McLemore Lambert (ca. 1815), and Margaret McLemore Marks (ca. 1818). Perhaps one or two, perhaps more, of these four were children of his second wife.

Burwell died within a year of this Census (1850-1851), as a suit was brought in Lauderdale County court, July term, 1851, for sale of his lands, in which his heirs were named as parties. The married names of some of Burwell's daughters were obtained from these papers. In addition, the spouses of several children are also generally known, Robert married Ruthea THORNBERRY in 1832 and Howell married her sister Mildred in 1828, Briggs married Mary SPIGAL or STEGAL in 1833, MACLIN married Nancy HALBERT in 1843; Mary J. married Gabriel DAVIS in 1827, Sarah married James LAMBERT, Margaret married Henry MARKS, and Barbary married a man named POTEET. (James L. McLemore, III. pp 76-77).

In "The Heritage of Lauderdale County, Alabama," the Alabama State Plat Book, page 43, is cited, showing that Burwell had purchased 160 acres on May 23, 1828. His land was West of Elk River T3S R7W NW Sec 11. Burwell and his family were among the oldest settlers to come to Lauderdale County, and he lived (in Lauderdale) until his death. On Feb. 21, 1840, he purchased 210 acres from Martin Harkins. This land was also in range 7, T3 sec 15 which is close to Elk River at Rogersville. The book further states that Burwell left a will in Lauderdale Co dated July 1, 1844 naming six living children by his second marriage as well as six living children by his first marriage. He is believed to be buried in the Womack cemetery in Rogersville. This cemetery is believed to to be on some of the land he owned.
