    McLemore Burying Ground, Montgomery, Alabama

    From DAR records 1936

    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.

    (Medical):A direct male descendant, still bearing the McLemore surname, participated in the Morrison yDNA study. He was predicted to be in the R1a haplogroup, common in many parts of Eurasia and Scandanavia. However, he does not currently have any matches among the other 15 members with the McLemore surname in the study. It is possible that there were several founding McLemore lines, instead of just one as has been long assumed. Or another possibility could be that undisclosed adoptions have occurred through the generations of descendants of both James and/or Abraham.

My husband didn't know that they were sisters he just knew that they lived together and were elderly."

    In another note she writes: "My husband said that Aunt Mamie and Aunt Dell live together and therefore we assume that Laura's nickname was Dell since he called them both Aunt. As mentioned before neither had been married to had any children to the best of his knowledge."

    Notes:

    From Memorial Record of Alabama (a book) published in 1893.

    "MOSES McLEMORE, a prominent planter of Montgomery county, was born in this county in 1857. He is a son of Andrew J. and Sarah C. (Smith) McLemore, the former native of Jones county, Ga., the latter of Orangeburgh district, S. C. Andrew J. McLemore came with his parents to Alabama about 1820, received a common school education, and married Margaret Caffey, who died leaving three daughters. In 1854 Mr. Mclemore married again, and spent the rest of his life in the vicinity of Moses McLemore's present home. He owned a fine plantation, and negroes, was never in public life nor performed any military service. He was well read and had a large fund of information. He was for many years a member of the Missionary Baptist Church, and died in 1870, aged fifty-five. His father was the Rev. James McLemore, a Missionary Baptist Minister, who came from Georgia to Alabama about 1820, and followed the ministry in this state for many years. He is said to have built the first church in Montgomery county. He was a Virginian by birth, and died before Moses McLemore was born, greatly loved by his people. His wife survived him by a number of years. She was an energetic woman, and attended the plantation affairs very successfully. They raised a large family of sons and daughters, only two of the daughters now surviving [ca.1893]. The mother of Moses McLemore is still living. She is a daughter of Jacob and Mary Smith, natives of South Carolina, where they lived all their lives. Mrs. McLemore came to Alabama with an uncle, Daniel Rast, who settled in Lowndes. She is the mother of four Children, viz.: Mary, Moses, Laura A. and Sterling Price. Moses was educated at the county schools and at Montgomery, and at the age of seventeen began life for himself as a farmer. He married, in 1890, Annie Benom Tanner, daughter of L. H. and Ophelia A. Tanner, who came from Georgia to Alabama. Mr. Tanner died at Union Springs, and Mrs. Tanner is still living. Mrs. McLemore was born in Tuskegee, Ala. Mr. McLemore is one of the leading farmers in the county, owning 2,900 acres of fine farming land. He has followed farming all his life, and for some years he also carried on merchandising, and ran a cotton gin. When he started in life he had but a few hundred dollars, inherited from his father's estate; now he is worth many thousands of dollars, all of which, with the exception just mentioned, he has aquired by his own industry and economy."

    Obituary

    Pioneer Resident of County is Dead

    Moses McLemore of Mitylene, Leading Citizen for Years, Passes Saturday

    Moses McLemore, of Mitylene one of the leading citizens of Montgomery county, died Saturday afternoon at ? 30 o'clock at a local infirmary. Mr. McLemore had been in declining health for some months and in February grew rapidly worse, and he was brought to Montgomery for treatment. Saturday an operation was resorted to in a last attempt to prolong his life, but in vain. Members of the family were at his bedside when the end came.

    The McLemores were a pioneer Montgomery family. They came to this county and settled on the rich farming lands in the famous old Mount Meigs vicinity 100 years ago. Always they have followed agriculture and with marked success. Moses McLemore, who was 63 years old at his death, had been born and reared on the family plantation on which he resided and which he operated for the whole of his life. He never lived elsewhere. He had long been recognized as one of the most successful planters in Middle Alabama. He was a gentleman of fine personal qualities and universally popular. He was a tender and devoted husband and father and a farmer who found the soil and its products a source of never-ending pleasure. The McLemore residence is one of the prettiest country places in Montgomery county. The numerous Montgomery friends of the family were frequently entertained within its hospitable walls. The dead planter is survived by his wife and three sons: A. J. McLemore, K T McLemore, and Price McLemore, all of Mitylene, and four daughters, Mrs. H. W. Walker of Millstead, Miss Alidah McLemore, Miss Cherita McLemore and Jane McLemore of Mitylene, and by two sisters, Miss Mary McLemore and Miss Adele McLemore, of Montgomery.

    Funeral services will take place from the residence on the Mot. Meigs Road Sunday afternoon at 4 o'clock. Dr. Charles A. Blakely of the First Baptist church, officiating. Interment will be at Oakwood.

    Obituary

    Death closed the life of Sterling Price McLemore on February 16, 1910.

    His devotoing to his aged mother was beautiful and sacred.

    To his sisters, he was ever kind and considerate.

    All who knew him in life mourned his passing away in his forty-eighth year.

    He had many qualities that endeared him to those who knew him.

    He was symphathetic, he was just; he was both gentle and strong.

    Altho' he had reached middle life, he had not grown old.

    The same qualities that drew us to the boy were to be found in the man.

    The home he has left is a monument to his loving providence for his dear ones.

    The emptiness of this home yawns for those who leaned on him so confidingly. Little children loved him because in him they had a friend.

    Life at its longest is but short. A rosy dawn, a golden moon, then a dusk stealing slowly o'er, or like a black could driven by a wind envelopes all this glory and Life'd Day is closed.

    He was a grandson of James McLemore, one of the founders of the First Baptist Church of Montgomery County.

    He has passed his life near the ancestral home established in 1813.

    One Who Knew Him

    McLemore Burying Ground, Montgomery, Alabama

    From DAR records 1936

    Sterling Price McLemore
    Mar 6, 1862
    Feb 16, 1910
    To my beloved brother

    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.
