Generation: 1

  1. 1.  Joel H. McLemore was born about 1784 in North Carolina; died after 1870 in Arkansas.

    Notes:

    THOUGHT to be the brother to Sterling C. McLemore by Melba Gene McLemore, family researcher. He also ended up in Arkansas.

    Foide Williams, in a post to the McLemore Family Genealogy Forum, writes that: "The 1820 census of Lincoln Co, Tn (pg 14) shows Sterling C. McLemore and (pg 30) Signer Allen (who married Rebecca McLemore), Benjamin Wright (who married Hannah McLemore), James R. Brown (who married Martha McLemore), and Joel McLemore. These are all from Fayette Co, KY and apparently traveled together to Lincoln Co, TN."

It is not known if they are for this William McLemore, or instead for a William McLemore thought to be instead a son of Abner McLemore (born 1785 in NC>Lawrence County, AL>Marion County, AL>Mississippi)
