  1. 2.  Thomas Barksdale McLemoreThomas Barksdale McLemore Descendancy chart to this point (1.Britain1) was born on 29 Apr 1918 in Shelby County, Tennessee; died on 5 Sep 1990 in Trenton, Mercer County, New Jersey.

    Notes:

    According to an email from John David McLemore, his grandfather, Thomas Barksdale McLemore " ----migrated to New York after graduating from Southwestern University at Memphis and receiving a scholarship for his masters degree at Columbia University in Manhattan. He was in WW2 as a lieutenant of a supply transport ship in the Pacific. When he came home he found work as an accountant at Metro Media, the precursor of Fox TV. My dad says that he was well liked there because he knew about computers, which in the 50s and 60s was an extremely new and intimidating technology. He died of a heart attack at his desk in 1990. He loved the outdoors and was an Adirondack 46er, which means he climbed all 46 of the Adirondack Mountains in upper NY. My dad is also a 46er. One day I'll get around to it too I hope. My dad doesn't really know much about the family history as my grandfather was a very quiet man. I think it runs in the family.

    Thomas B. McLemore Married 2 times, but I'm not sure of his first wife's name. His second wife was Barbara June Wilson b. 1918 in Oakland,CA (a distant relation to Edna Wilson).


    Family/Spouse: Barbara June Wilson. Barbara was born about 1918 in Oakland, Alameda County, California; and died. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
