      James J. Willingham
      ----
      May 31, 1862
      In Memory of Lt. Col. Jas. J Willingham, 6th Alabama Regiment who was killed in the battle of Seven Pines, aged 23 years, 3 months and 17 days (son of William F. Willingham & Rebecca McLemore; grandson of James & Elizabeth Harper McLemore)

      The McLemore Burying Ground is about one mile off the Montgomery -Atlanta
      Highway to the right facing east, and is about five miles from Montgomery.
      It is on a knoll behind the old James McLemore home built about 1820. In
      1936 Mrs. Lizzie Taylor Dickerson occupied it. A low brick wall and
      iron fence surrounds the lot. Outside the main cemetery is another smaller
      one, also enclosed. There are graves of slaves and faithful servants, mostly
      unmarked outside all enclousures. Graves listed begin at the southwest
      corner of the plot.
