They were farmers whose main crop was cotton and corn. The McLemores were a religious family who were members of the Methodist Church in Rogersville. They were the parents of: Hettie Lee, Robert Oneal, Osie Josephine, Oliver Clyde, James Tollie, Virta Lucille, Christine Louise and Susie Eloise. The older children attended school in the Williams school, one of the oldest in the Rogersville area.
