Gilliam McLemore

Notes:

The inventory of Gilliam's estate was filed in Sussex County May 5, 1814, and a first accounting filed August 3, 1815, showed $10 paid to his sister Anna for keeping his children briefly, and accounts were paid to his brother James and to the latter's father-in-law, Daniel Harwood as well. In about 1815 or 1816 Sylvia McLemore, widow of Gilliam McLemore, filed suit against his administrator. In this suit all six children were named, probably in the order of their births: Amy, Polly, Henry, Burwell G., Betsey and Rebecca.

Polly and Betsey are not found elsewhere in the records, except that is is possible that Polly was the Mary who married Turner NEWTON in March 1827 (Sussex Marriage Register, p. 371), since her cousin Fanny (Frances L.) married Thomas NEWTON. However, the "Mary" in this Marriage record, even if called by the nickname Polly, could also have been the daughter of Howell McLemore or John McLemore III.

Henry apparently died before reaching his teenage years, probably in late 1815. An accounting of his estate with first entry on December 25, 1815, was filed on May 7, 1829 (Sussex Will Book L, p. 155).

(James L. McLemore, III, pp. 77-78).
