??? McLemore

Bef 1785 - Yes, date unknown

• Name	??? McLemore  [1]
  Birth	Bef 1785
  Gender	Male
  Death	Yes, date unknown
  Notes	It is being ASSUMED that Reuben, Matthew and Dorcus McLemore, all born between 1805 and 1811 in South Carolina, and residents of Copiah County, MS at the time of the 1850 and/or 1860 census are likely siblings, and were born to a currently unknown McLemore father. This is based not just on their close ages and birthplace, but also on the research of Ann and Eldon McLemore, who provided the following information: "REUBEN McLEMORE filed a bond for $16,000 in Copiah. Named on the bond were ELIZABETH McLEMORE (wife???), Virginia Marsh, MATHEW McLEMORE (brother???) and Uriah Millsap, dated 5 Dec 1860. Signed by all except Virginia." Ann and Eldon also state that guardianship for Mary Ann Whitehead, a daughter of Dorcus (nee McLemore), was probated for Mary Ann to Reuben McLemore, brother of her mother, on 22 Mar 1867." Ann and Eldon believe that the parents of Reuben, Matthew and Dorcus are John McLemore and Winnie Baltice. No evidence has been found, however, to prove this link. It also appears that the reference to Winnie Baltice might actually be to Vinie Batiste, who married another McLemore and was not the mother of Reuben, Matthew or Dorcus of Copiah County; or Wesley or John of Scott County, whom Ann and Eldon speculate might also be siblings of Reuben, Matthew and Dorcus.
