Abt 1813 - Aft 1887 (~ 75 years)
Generation: 1
1. | Amos McLemore was born about 1813 in Sampson County, North Carolina; died after 1887 in Sampson County, North Carolina. Notes:
Based on the 1860 census, Amos appears to have been born ca. 1813.
Amos was said to be the son of Raiford McLemore by researcher Robert McLemore Butler. However, based on the 1820 and 1830 Sampson County, NC census enumeration, Raiford did not appear to have any sons that were this age. Additionally, Raiford McLemore appears to have also been the father or otherwise closely associated with an Amos McLemore who was born ca 1845. Finally, in the Division of the lands of Raiford McLemore, done ca 1864, Amos was not mentioned.
Due to all of these factors, it seems unlikely to me that Amos was a son of Raiford McLemore. It would therefore seem likely a that he was actually the son of one of Raiford's three older brothers, Hezekiah, Henry or Tobias.
Very little is known about the makeup of HEZEKIAH's family. It appears that Hezekiah may have died sometime after 1813 when his last land transaction in Sampson County is recorded. It is possible, however, that he left surviving children in or around Sampson County. It is also possible that he moved away from North Carolina, presumably taking his family with him. James L. McLemore, III thinks it a strong possibility that Hezekiah moved to South Carolina, where he died ca. 1818. Based on naming patterns, however, it seems Hezekiah was more likely the father of Raiford McLemore, born ca 1815 than of Amos, born ca 1813. It is possible, however, that he was the father of Amos.
HENRY had a son that was born between 1810 and 1820, and therefore he could be the father of Amos McLemore. Henry's family was in Bladen County, which was adjacent to Sampson County, at the time of the 1820 and 1830 census. Additionally, in 1870, a deed shows that Amos & Jemima McLemore sold property in Sampson County that was described as "Beginning at a stake on the old Pond two pines as pointers below his old house, whence with Henry McLEMORE's line...." That Amos's land adjoined land once owned by Henry adds weight to this possibility. However, James L. McLemore, III has ruled out Henry due to a Will filed by Henry in Georgia, and Amos is NOT included in his list of children by either of his two wives. Henry's sons born between 1910 and 1915 appear to have been John Wright McLemore and Wilson McLemore, and therefore Henry could not have been the father of Amos.
Finally, TOBIAS McLemore, was also listed as having a son born between 1810 and 1815. By process of elimination, Tobias seems to be the most likely fit as being the father of Amos, unless of course Amos was the son of Hezekiah and Raiford, also born ca 1810-1815, was the son of Tobias.
Based on all of the above, it is assumed that Amos is the son of Tobias, and Raiford the son of Hezekiah. Further proof should be sought out to support both assumptions.

2. | Mary J. McLemore (1.Amos1) was born about 1839 in North Carolina; and died. Notes:
Bonnie Seiler shows that she married Alexander SMITH on 20 October 1868 in Cumberland County, NC
Could this deed be attributable to her? 1882 Cumberland County NC Deed Bk 71 p 371 Mary J. McLEMORE to David S. BOWLES If it is, it is not known why she was using her maiden name
|
3. | Anna McLemore (1.Amos1) was born about 1840 in North Carolina; and died. Notes:
At the time of the 1900 Cumberland County, NC census, a 54 year old Annie McLemore was living in the home of Edward C. and Lena McLemore. She was listed as "Aunt," and her date of birth was shown as Nov. 1845. She was single.
Bonnie Seiler shows her instead as the mother of an Edward C. McLemore.
It appears to have been Anna, and not her cousin Ann McLemore (daughter of Raiford McLemore and Polly Underwood) who sold the following land in 1885: Cumberland County, NC Deed Book 79, p 353 Ann McLEMORE to John AVERITT 197 1/2 acres adjacent JESSUP and in 1890: Cumberland County NC Deed Bk 90 p 403 Ann McLEMORE to Wm. BYRD 42 acres on Harrison Creek. Her brother, Haywood, also sold land adjacent to the Jessup's in Cumberland County.

4. | Lofton Hayes McLemore (1.Amos1) was born on 10 Mar 1844 in Sampson County, North Carolina; died on 3 Oct 1906 in Sampson County, North Carolina. Notes:
According to Robert McLemore Butler, he was Pvt 2nd Co A 2nd Artillery Regt during the Civil War. He was born ca 1843 in Sampson County and the son of Amos McLemore (b. 1813). Lofton enlisted July 15, 1862 in Wake County. He was wounded May 2, 1863 at Chancellorsville, Va. Reported absent for the next 11 months due to wounds. Discharged April 24, 1864 due to phthisis pulmonalis affecting both lungs. The Cumberland Plough Boys website instead shows that he servied in the North Carolina Regiment, 2nd Company E.
http://ploughboys.org/tag/2nd-battalion-north-carolina-local-defense/page/2/
In 1869, Lofton was a witness, along with Zachariah ROYAL, to the Will of Zachariah ROYAL dated 28 Jun 1869. It was probated 12 Mar 1870. Zachariah's wife was Louisa ROYAL, and she was left the furniture, enough provisions for her support for one year and livestock...at her death to be divided equally between all five (5) children---Oliver ROYAL, Allen ROYAL, Rice ROYAL, Emely ROYAL and Nancy ROYAL. (Courtesy Robert McLemore Butler, who noted that Emily Royal was Lofton's wife).
After Lofton's death, his oldest sons, Edward and Amos, conveyed land they had inherited from him to their younger half brothers, O.B, Alvin and Dennis. As son Abner was not mentioned in the deed, it appears they may have died prior to its execution in 1910. Edward and and Amos's sister, Ida, was also not mentioned in the conveyence.

Could Oscar have first married Margaret Emaline SESSOMS? Robert McLemore Butler has, in his notes, the following death notice:
Sampson County, NC Died Roseboro, NC 19 Dec 1956 Margaret Emaline McLemore b. 9 Feb 1861 F John Elson Sessoms M Penny Fisher Spouse OSCAR BERNICE McLEMORE Bk 44 p 251.
However, I don't think that the Oscar McLemore that Margaret married was Oscar Bernice McLemore, the son of Lofton. I believe this was another Oscar McLemore.
Oscar Bernice doesn't seem to be a likely fit for at least three reasons three reasons:
1) Oscar Bernice (assuming his date of birth is accurate) would have only been about 14 in 1895, when W. Oscar and Margaret got married.
Marriage record per Robert McLemore Butler:
* 1895 - Sampson County, NC .. Married .. 9 Mar 1895 .. M.O. McLemore (19) to Margaret E. Sessoms (21) .. Wit. J.W. Underwood, J.O. Johnson, S.B. Sessoms .. married at brides home.
2) Oscar Bernice was still listed with his parents in 1900, only five years after the date of the marriage, so it was either another Oscar that married Margaret, or Oscar Bernice had already been married and divorced. However, W.O. and Margarett McLemore executed a deed, referenced below, in 1905, so appear to have remained married.
Sampson County Deed Book Book 139, Page 133 Abstract of Deed W.O. McLEMORE to A. F. FISHER
Made this first day of September 1905 by W.O. McLEMORE wife Margrett McLEMORE of Sampson County and state of North Carolina of the first part to A.F. FISHER of Sampson County and state of North Carolina of the second part...in consideration of the sum of Three Dollars to them paid by A.F. FISHER....convey to said A.F. FISHER....a certain tract or parcel of land in Little Coharie Township....adjoining the lands of J.L. BULLARD A.F. FISHER house tract, and others....containing one acres of land more or less..
...whereof the said W.O. McLEMORE hath hereunto set their hands and seals the day and year above written W.O. McLEMORE MARGRETT McLEMORE Attest W.J. FAIRCLOTH, J.P.
...North Carolina Sampson County the foregoing certificate of W.J. Faircloth J.P of Sampson County is adjudged to be correct and sufficient Let the instruments with the certificate be registered Witness my hand this 31st day of Oct 1905 W.F. SESSOMS Clerk Superior Court Recorded Oct 31st, 1915 R.A. INGRAM Regr. of Deeds
3) The Oscar that was married to Margarett was usually listed as W.O. or W. Oscar McLemore. Oscar Bernice is usually listed as O.B. or Bernice McLemore.
I could not find a W.O. or Oscar or Margaret or Maggie INDEXED in 1900 or 1910. It is possible that I simply overlooked them.
It appears that W.O. died sometime before 1920, because on the 1920 and 1930 census, I do find Maggie as a widow. In 1920 she was in Little Coharie, and Cordia, Elisha*, Emma May and Ginnie were listed as children. In 1930, she is also in Little Coharie, with only Elisha* and Cordia (the two oldest children) still listed at home PLUS with a 12 year old niece, Mary McLemore.
Sampson County, NC .. Died .. 8 Jan 1986 .. *Elisha Anderson McLemore [b. 11 May 1900] ..F: Oscar McLemore M: Maggie Sessoms .. Bk 74 p 243. .. buried at Williams Cemetery, Sampson County, NC]

Robert Butler lists her as Mettie McLemore and Diane McLemore Harrison instead shows her as Mattie Hall.
Bonnie Adams Seiler, a niece, does not show a marriage to a Mr. HALL. She only lists a marriage to Joseph Forrest ATKINS. As Myrtie would only have been 14 at the time of the purported marriage to M.J. Hall, it appears that it may have actually been someone else who married him in 1904 in Cumberland County.
Myrtie married Joseph Forrest Atkins, Sr. on 13 Aug 1908 in Cumberland County, North Carolina. Joseph was born on 9 Jun 1889 in Fayetteville, Cumberland County, North Carolina; died on 11 Jun 1967 in Fayetteville, Cumberland County, North Carolina; was buried in Lafayette Memorial Cemetery, Fayetteville, Cumberland County, North Carolina.

49. | Dixie Madie McLemore (13.Dennis3, 4.Lofton2, 1.Amos1) was born on 7 Jan 1926 in Sampson County, North Carolina; died on 25 Apr 2009 in Charlotte, Mecklenburg County, North Carolina. Notes:
Robert McLemore Butler's notes shows that Dixie Madie McLemore was born to Dennis Lofton McLemore and Odella Mae McMILLIAN on 26 Jan 1826 (sic). She was four years old as of the 1930 census, so it would have been 1926 when she was acutally born. He cites Bk 13, p 491.He later shows the DOB to have been 5 Jan 1926.
He further shows her to have married Forrest Reed WILKERSON III, with the date of marriage being 7 January 1921 in Bladen County. As this could not be the date of marriage (based on their ages), I assume it is actually the date of birth for Forrest.
