I have ASSUMED that based on the 1900 Limestone County, Alabama Census, McLin is the son of the Joel H. McLemore of Limestone/Lauderdale Alabama , a son of Maclin B. McLemore. Maclin B.'s son Joel is the correct age, continued to live in proximity to his parents and siblings, and seemed to have named his son after his father. Additionally, McLin's widow is living next to a Maclin B. McLemore at the time of the 1930 census. This older Maclin B. McLemore would have been a brother to Joel H. McLemore and Uncle to McLin. However, MaryLynn Santa shows McLins' father as Joel Henry, whereas the Joel H. McLemore of Limestone/Lauderdale might actually be Joel Halbert McLemore.

Other researchers have not drawn a conclusion as to the parentage of Joel H. McLemore, so my conclusion may be premature, and further work should be done to prove this. It might instead be possible that McLin is instead the son of Joel H. McLemore of Hickman County, TN, and grandson of Joel McLemore Sr and his wife Harriet McLearen. The location and age of this other Joel H. McLemore, however, are not as good of a match.
