  Father	Lofton Hayes McLemore,   b. 10 Mar 1844, Sampson County, North Carolina d. 3 Oct 1906, Sampson County, North Carolina (Age 62 years)
  Mother	Nancy Elizabeth Spell,   b. 10 Mar 1860, Sampson County, North Carolina d. 6 Aug 1930, Sampson County, North Carolina (Age 70 years)
  Marriage	Abt 1877
  	Robert McLemore Butler thinks it possible that the mother of Lofton's four youngest children was actually Emily ROYAL, and that "we suspect that after Lofton's death, or their divorce, (his first wife) Elizabeth BULLARD remarried and her new husband was named SPELL" The 1900 census indicates that Lofton and his current wife had been married 23 years, and that she was the mother of four children, all living.
