  1. 4.  John Fielding McLemore was born on 30 Dec 1844 in Kentucky (son of John McLemore and Caroline Stevenson); died on 19 Oct 1932 in Jennings, Jefferson Davis Parish, Louisiana; was buried in Oaklawn Cemetery, Welsh, Jefferson Davis Parish, Louisiana.

    Notes:

    In 1900 he was living in the home of David J. McLemore and Eliza Hudson McLemore of Logan County as of the 1860 census. He and David J. McLemore appear to have been first cousins.

    I was unable to locate him as of the 1870 census, but in 1880, he was living in the home of another first cousin, Sarah McLemore Hoskins, still in Logan County.

    FindAGrave indicates he was buried in the Oaklawn Cemetery, Welsh, Jefferson Davis Parish, LA. They also show on that website that he served in "Co. F, 26 Ky Inf", which is inscribed on his headstone.

    Porter Marshall shows that he was a served for the C.S.A. during the Civil War. This is NOT correct.

    A descendant emailed: "John Fielding McLemore (b. 1844) was a Union Soldier, he was not part of the CSA as listed on the site. The 26th KY Infantry was Union (See Wikipedia and the National Park Service Website) Also, if you look at his grave marker it bears the emblem of the Great Seal of the United States. Last, my grandfather told me that his "grandaddy" ( John F. McLemore) served in the Union Army and "was wounded 8 times." Of course, I have no proof that he was wounded 8 times but as a boy growing up in the south, it stuck with me that one of my ancestors was a Union Soldier."

Generation: 4

  1. 8.  John McLemore was born about 1815 in North Carolina (son of Joel McLemore, Jr. and Temperence "Tempe" Goodwyn); died before 1860.

    Notes:

    Assumed to be part of the "large family" raised by Joel and Temperence McLemore based on his age and census location. Not proven.

    John and Caroline and their four children can be found on the 1850 census, but as of 1860 the family is no longer together. It appears likely that John and Caroline died prior to this date, and that their children were scattered among differing families in Logan County. Hiram D, the oldest, was a boarder in the Lamb home. John, the next eldest, was living with his first cousin, David J. McLemore. The two youngest, Mary and James, were living in the home of their presumed uncle, Goodwin McLemore.

    Notes:

    The index of the Kentucky Death Records on Ancestry.com show her as a resident of Logan County, KY at the time of her death.

The actual image of the death record, however, shows Marggaret Mabin as White, age 36, Female, Occupation Housewifery maid DOD April 29, with her cause of death be Inf???tion of brain.

    FindAGrave instead lists her parents as John MABEN and Nancy HENDERSON Maben, who also have memorials on that website.
