"I suspect your Hiram must be Hiram H. Fairchild (1856-1927) who married Hattie W. Clark in 1881 in Copiah Co MS. They had children: Martin Luther, Mary S., Josephine, Henry, Lavena, Cleveland Lundy, Jesse, Hattie Mae, John Everett, Irvin, and Arden. Jesse is probably your Jesse Clark Fairchild, and Irvin, your James Irvin Fairchild. I can provide more data if this sounds like your family."

10. | Moses McLemore was born about 1787 in South Carolina (son of Amos McLemore and Equilla ???); died on 18 Mar 1857 in Copiah County, Mississippi. Notes:
Paraphrased from "Ole Rosinheels" Moses and brother Richard McLemore were born in SC, and probably moved from Giles Co., TN to Wayne Co., MS at the end of hostilities in the War of 1812. They settled in that part of Wayne County which, in 1819, became Covington County and, still later, in 1826, became Jones County. They were both listed in the 1816 census of Wayne County, but neither was on the 1810 census of the same area. They settled in the Leaf River country of what is now Jones, Perry, Forrest and Covington counties, in south-eastern Mississippi. They lived in close proximity, and John McLemore joined them in 1820. In 1836, Richard moved to Lauderdale County.
The following transcription is courtesy of Melba Gene McLemore, and relates to the military service of Moses during the Creek War:
Know all men by these presents that I Moses Mclemore of the State of Tennessee and Giles County have constetutes ? made and appointed my trusty friend Abraham Byler my true and Lawful attorney for me and in my name and to my use to ask demand ... fore Recover and Receive from the paymaster of the United States all such Sum or Sums of Money which is owing to me from the United States for my services for a tour of duty against the Creek Indians under the command of Gen Andrew Jackson and upon Receiving of such money as fore said to receip for the same in my name in as full and ample a manner as i could do if I were personally present in witness where of I the said Moses McLemore have here unto let my hand and seal this 17th day July 1815

Moses married Nancy Vinnie Batiste between 1810 and 1815. Nancy was born about 1794 in Mississippi; died on 31 Aug 1868 in Mississippi. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

11. | Nancy Vinnie Batiste was born about 1794 in Mississippi; died on 31 Aug 1868 in Mississippi. Notes:
According to Merritt Mullen, her maiden name is variously shown as Batiste, Baptiste, Battiece. ...
Merritt writes that Nancy (Vinnie) Batiste is believed to be a Choctaw Indian, probably born in the territory of Mississippi (census records indicate she was born in South Carolina, but there are no Batiste families there). A tradition in different branches of the Fairchild family says her grandchildren are 1/4 Indian, and the early Choctaw Indian rolls for Mississippi show Indian families using the surname of "Batiste" (with various spellings such as Battist, Battiese, Battice, Bapten). The name is also found among the Choctaws who migrated to Oklahoma Indian Territory.
"Batiste" is a variant spelling of the French name "Baptiste" (as in the common name "Jean Baptiste", or John the Baptist). The Baptistes were prominent early settlers of the Gulf Coast around what is now Mobile, Alabama. Jean Baptiste (dit Graveline) Baudreau came from Montreal (Canada) to the Gulf Coast with the brothers d'Iberville and Bienville, sent by King Louis XV to build Fort Louis and explore the Gulf Coast to protect the huge holdings (Louisiana Purchase area). It was in 1699/1700 that Jean Baptiste Baudreau came to the Pascaqoula/Bay St. Louis area on the Gulf Coast.
The family history of the descendants of Jean Baptiste Beaudreau indicates it was common for the male descendants to have both a French and an Indian wife, and children with both of them. A grandson of the first settler, Jean Batiste Baudreau, Pierre Baptiste (also called Pedro, during the Spanish era on the Gulf Coast) was probably 1/4 Indian and 3/4 French. He married a Choctaw Indian and had a daughter by her named Michou Jenny (or Jincy) Batiste (or Battiest), who married Daniel Anderson. It is possible that a brother of Jenny was the father of Nancy Vinnie Baptiste. If Nancy's mother was a full-blood Choctaw, then Nancy would be 3/16 French and 13/16 Indian.
Nancy was living in Copiah County, Mississippi with her son, John, at the time of the 1860 Census.
Larry Kingsley & Merritt Mullen both note that she died in Scott County, Mississippi.
Notes:
Married:
May also be the parents of an Elizabeth McLemroe, born 1820 and married James Lowery of the Cherokee Nation East. (MaryLynn Santa and Mark Freeman both reference her, but neither William McLemore or April Makerney have her listed).
