Thomas married Sophia Ann "Anna" Clark on 5 Jan 1891 in Sabine County, Texas.

[Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

I ASSUMED this is the ELTON that Bernis D Thacker (2523 Laurelcrest Memphis, TN 38133-5190 bdt0915551@msn.com) lists as the oldest child of Thomas and Sophia McLemore. The 1910 census did show that Sophia was the mother of 6 children, only five who were living. The children listed at the time of the 1910 census were John E., Myrtie, Fannie, Maggie and Ary A.

Also, this appears to be the same person as the 27 year old John E. McLemore, married to 22 year old Anne P, who was living in San Augustine, Texas (ED#176) and working as a barber at the time of the 1920 census. He died before the 1930 census. John W. Clark shows his date of death as much earlier, circa 1910.

These are handwriten records, and were at times hard to
read. Question marks were used where a field was not readable.
Birth surnames were derived from the father's surname. If the
father's name was not listed, the married surname was used in
the Birth Surname field. Approximate Age is derived by
subtracting year of birth from year of death when these are
given. Mother's and Father's birthplace have been added to
records after 1960.

Many thanks to Warren Meadows Funeral Home for making these
records available.

Obituary, copied from his FindAGrave Memorial Page created by "East Texan":

Reggie was an established businessman who co-owned Longview Creosoting Co. with his brothers. He retired from Martin Gas Sales after many years of service. Reggie had many passions, including his love of dogs and the outdoors. He instilled a love of fishing and hunting throughout his family, and he will be greatly missed at future campfires.

Reggie was known for always enjoying life. He loved a good smoke, a cold drink of Weller and a good puzzle. He was a member in good standing of the "ol Farts Poker Club,"' and he wanted the boys to know "he was all in." He was always willing to help out those in need.

He was preceded in death by his parents, Leland Tim and Anna McDaniel; and one brother, Ted McDaniel.

Reggie is survived by his loving wife, June Beckham McDaniel; son and daughter-in-law, Mark and Vanessa McDaniel; daughter and son-in-law, Lisa and Dennis Jones; daughters, Sondra Willougby and Glenna Havard; son and daughter-in-law, David and Libby Havard; grandchildren, Leslie and Jason Hinton, Ashley and James Croswell, Leland Chance and Shannon McDaniel, Lydia Jones, and Marissa, Shelbie, Slade, Shaine, Jennifer, Jill, Carrie, Julie and Jaycee; 10 great-grandchildren; and many nieces and nephews.
