Notes:

Melba Gene McLemore quotes Luke Tyler as telling her that "Anderson was killed cutting the top of an Oil & Gas barrel, which exploded." Luke's wife was the granddaughter of W.H. "Will" HANNAFORD, brother of Lula Ann Hannaford McLemore. Luke also informed Melba that Dudley Davis of Reid, Mississippi had a box of material about this family that came to him from the home of the late Iris McLemore.
