    • Biographical Sketch of A. J. McLemore, Walnut Grove Township, Greene County, Missouri

      From "History of Greene County, Missouri," St. Louis: Western
      Historical Company, 1883.

      A. J. McLemore was born in Monroe County, East Tennessee, September 10,
      1829. His father, Mr. A. McLemore, was a native of North Carolina,
      born March 11, 1787. He died in Tennessee. The subject of this sketch
      was the youngest child of his parents, there being nine older than he.
      When fifteen years old, he came to Greene County, Mo., and after a
      short stay at Springfield, went to Dade County. In 1851, he, with other
      adventurers, took the gold fever and went to California. Here he re-
      mained some five years, and accumulated a considerable sum of money.
      Returning to Dade County, Mo., in 1857, he speculated in live stock a
      short time, but returned to California in the spring of 1857, accomp-
      anied by his wife (Dialtha Alexander) to whom he had been married in
      February 5, 1857. They drove a large herd of stock through to the West
      on which Mr. McLemore realized handsomely. They located in Eldorado
      County on a stock ranch, remaining eighteen months. Returning to Miss-
      ouri, Mr. McLemore bought the old Alexander homestead near Ozark, on
      which he remained till the civil war. He then sold out and made a trip
      to Texas, but returned almost immediately, and located again just north
      of Ozark, where he remained till he moved to where he now lives, near
      Walnut Grove. He has one of the best improved farms in the northwest
      part of Greene County, his residence being elegant and well located.
      Seven children have been born to Mr. McLemore and wife, six of whom,
      Ida F., John S., Detroit M., Maggie M., Greeley N. and Myrtle O., are
      still living. The deceased child was their first born, a son named
      Cornelius A., born June 23, 1859 and died March 23, 1863.
