Archibald McLemore, farmer, and an old citizen of Center Township, five miles northeast of Greenfield, is a native of Knox County, Tenn., having been born in 1817. His father was Archibald McLemore, of North Carolina, who went to Knox County, Tenn., when a young man, where he married Sarah Plumley. In 1820 they removed to Monroe County, where he died in 1825, at about at he age of forty-five, his wife dying in 1824. She was the mother of eleven children, the subject of this sketch being the seventh, who, after his parents' death, lived with his brother, Abram, working for him until he was nearly grown. In 1827 he assisted the governor to remove the Cherokees to their reservation in Indian Territory. September 15, 1842, he married Miss Mollie Brown, who was born in South Carolina, in 1817, the daughter of Robert and Jennie (Dennis) Brown, who moved to Monroe County, Tenn., about 1820. In 1842 Mr. McLemore came to Dade County, Mo., and settled two miles from Greenville, on the farm which is now owned by John Higgin. He remained two years, when, owing to ill health, he returned to Tennessee, and, in 1849, again came to Dade County, settling on the farm which he now owns, comprising about 265 acres. Their family consisted of six children: Mary, who died in 1886, aged forty-three; Robert, a merchant at Everton; Sarah Ann, wife of James McConnell; William, merchant at Everton; Paulina, wife of George Wilson, merchant at Everton. Mr. McLemore is a highly respected citizen; in politics he is a Republican, casting his first vote for Van Buren in 1840, being a Democrat before the war. He and his wife belong to the Cumberland Presbyterian Church.
Obituary of Archibald McLemore from the Greenfield Vadette 5 FEB 1905.
Archibald McLemore
"Born in 1817, Mr. McLemore died at the home of his son Wm. Y. McLemore in this city Sunday, Jan. 29th, 1905, in the 88th year of his age.
Mr. McLemore was born in Knox County, Tennessee, in 1817. His Father, Archibald, a native of North Carolina, died in 1825. His Mother, a native of South Carolina, whose maiden name was Plumley, died in 1824, so that the death of his Father left him an orphan at the age of eight years. Until fifteen years of age, he lived with an older brother, when he and another brother walked 300 miles to the gold mines of Northern Georgia, and began life for themselves. He remained but a short time, going thence to Tennessee, where he engaged in farming until 1837, when at the age of 17, he enlisted in the Tennessee Militia, and was engaged with the troops in the removal of the Cherokee Indians to their reservation in the territory.
In 1842, he was married to Mollie Brown, born in South Carolina in 1817. Sometime after their marriage, they decided to settle in Southwest Missouri. He had a large wagon constructed and came through the swamps of Southeast Missouri, an over Ozarks to Springfield. They subsisted principally on game killed by Mr. McLemore while en route. They stopped near Springfield, which was then but a small settlement, but a short time. Being unsatisfied with the conditions there, they pushed on through the wilderness, stopping near Hoyt's Mill, on Turnback, even two and one-half miles East of Greenfield, in 1842. Here, he began the construction of a cabin, and the preparation of a tract of land for farming, but because of sickness of himself and his wife, which lasted a year, they moved to the mountain districts of East Tennessee.
In 1849 he returned to Missouri and located on the Sac River, about five miles Northeast of Greenfield. By unremitting toil, he made enough rails to enclose his tract of land, entered it for a homestead, and has since resided there, except during the brief period recently in which he made his home with his son, Wm. Y. McLemore, our County Recorder, in this city.
The funeral discourse was preached by Rev. J. E. Johnston, local pastor at the C. P. Church Monday afternoon, from where the burial took place.
Another good man and good citizen has gone to his reward.
He was a consistent Christian gentleman, blessed with as many friends as usually fall to the lot of any man. Cursed with as few enemies as any man of conviction could be. What a pity the world is not full of such."

Obituary, copied from his FindAGrave memorial page, created by MillieBelle:
One of 13 children born to John and Dena McLemore, my grandparents. In the 30's he and Mae moved to Alvin, Texas, a bustling oilfield town on the Gulf Coast south of Houston. He opened a variety store there and A.C. and Mae would keep the store open all hours so the oilfield workers would stop for coffee and to buy something. He and Mae built a business that had stores in several towns of S.E. Texas and employed mostly family members as store managers. A.C. had a head for business and saw the coming of Gibson's and what was to be WalMart so he sold to Wacker's in the mid-60s and retired to build a catfish farm at Albion, Oklahoma on the Kiamichi River. He died from an instantly fatal heart attack there in the cabin with Mae. John Edward McLemore of Talihina, Oklahoma was the only child and he is the namesake of his Grandfather.

Ben was a vibrant man who adored his family. All his efforts were focused on the absolute success of his five elegant daughters who he was infatuated with on a daily basis. He was the ultimate role model for his 10 grandsons. His 6 granddaughters were amazed in his stature as a man of integrity.
His most impressive virtue was the love of his wife of 57 years. Ben dedicated his every thought and was driven to the ultimate quest of his dear wife's every desire. It was a wonderful love story played out in front of his family daily.
The only regret is 9 great-grandchildren will never understand as I do the contribution Ben made to the McLemore dynasty.
May his legacy live on!
Ben is survived by his wife Delfina; 5 daughters, Mary Sharp & husband Dr. Thomas Sharp, Delfina McLemore, Lois McLemore, Patricia Richardson & husband Gary D. Richardson, Theresa McLemore Everett; 16 grandchildren, Steven Cowsert & wife Halley, Kevin Cowsert & wife Sari, Kristi Cowsert, Mandi Hargrove & husband Kenneth, Michael Buckner, Joshua Brown, Marissa Brown, Robert Smith, Ashley McLemore-Simons & husband Collin, Jordan Goss, Gary D. Richardson II & wife Bayly, Lauren Richardson, Scott Everett & wife Jessica, Marc Everett, Jared Everett, & Ryan Everett; great-grandchildren, Colten, Arslan, Caden, Rayelle, Raley, Striker, Easton, Macklie, & Hudson.
A Mass of Christian Burial will be held 10:30 Saturday, September 20, 2014 at Holy Spirit Catholic Church, 1111 W. Danieldale in Duncanville.

He fought in the Civil War and was the first of three successive generations of McLemore Clerks of (Circuit) Court. Most McLemores still living in or near the Southside (including the author) are descended from him.
He married Rosa Ann WESTBROOK, sister of his own sister Sarah Elizabeth's husband, James Edwin WESTBROOK.
(James L. McLemore, III, p. 81).
Rev. William P. McLemore, in a section on his website devoted to notable McLemore's (Website: http://www.geocities.com/Heartland/Meadows/3476/mclem1.htm), has the following biography:
Benjamin Franklin McLemore, was born May 3, 1839, the son of James and Martha M. (Barkley) McLemore of southwestern Southampton County. He was apparently one of at least six children born of this union. After completion of his studies, he probably farmed for a while, perhaps with his father, and apparently clerked in a store as well, until the spring of 1861 erupted into this nation's bloodiest conflict, the American Civil War. He survived the entire war with only two slight wounds, was apparently taken with other surrendered southern soldiers to Richmond where he took the amnesty oath on May 18, 1865, and was paroled. He walked home to Southampton County where, by the end of the year he felt secure enough about his future to marry, taking as his wife, Rosa Ann Westbrook, daughter of James David Westbrook and Nancy Lewis (Turner) Westbrook on December 20, 1865, at the bride's home in Drewryville. His wife Rosa, after giving birth to nine children of whom seven survived infancy and six survived to marry and have issue, died on May 26, 1896. B. F. McLemore thereafter married, secondly, Lelia G. Adams, daughter of William T. and Martha P. ("Pullie") Adams of Adams Grove west of Drewryville. This marriage took place on August 3, 1898, in the town of Suffolk in neighboring Nansemond County. Benjamin Franklin McLemore died on January 29, 1911, and was buried between his two wives in the family plot in the cemetery behind the Episcopal Church in Courtland. (B. F. McLemore His Ancestors and Descendants, James L. McLemore, 1991, pp. 337-349)

Colby Fugate McLemore writes that Benjamin F. McLemore, son of Hiram, was born June 16, 1845 in Lee County, Virginia, where his parents lived a few months after his birth, moving into the mountains of Kentucky. The 1850 census instead shows his place of birth as Tennesse, and later records place it in Kentucky.
He notes that he was a Civil War veteran, and received a flesh wound to the temple during a battle. When he first placed his hand on his temple after the mini-ball creased it, he thought he had received a shot through the brains.
Colby McLemore also cites a manuscript of confederate records in the Archives Division of the Virginia State Library which state: "Benjamin Franklin McLemore was a private in Co. G, Third Regiment, Kempers's Brigade--The Rough and Ready Guards (Southhampton County) - commanded by Captains Richard P. Clements, Henry S. Howard, John W. Harrison, Nathaniel T. Francis, enlisting in 1861 and served four years." It appears that this record is being cited erroneously, as it more likely pertains to the Benjamin Franklin McLemore who was a resident of Southhampton County, Virginia...the son of James McLemore and Martha Barkley and husband of Rosa Westbrook. This other Benjamin Franklin McLemore was six years older than Benjamin, the son of Hiram.
Benjamin was said to have had the nicest team of black horses and surry in the county, keeping the harness highly polished and taking great pride and care of his team. Dressed in black with a tall black hat, neighbor Marshall Walker (Wrady) Vicars, Sr. said he "cut quite a figure."

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.

Her mother's Memorial Page on FindAGrave shows that Bertie Dodd McLemore was the wife of Edgar DRYSDALE.
Ancestry.com suggests she is the same person as the Bessie Mildred McLemore (born 4 Jan 1908 Alabama and died 11 Dec 1998 in Dallas), who was the spouse of Joseph TREES (1904-1995). A copy of her death certificate should be requested to verify this, however.
Ancestry.com suggests this might be the same person as Bessie Mae Myers, born 15 Sept 1901 and died 27 Jan 1973, the spouse of Thomas Quitman Myers (1906-1956). Their Find A Grave memorial page can be found here:
https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/122105281
A copy of their marriage license and her death certificate should be obtained to prove this.
The Barksdale Family History and Genealogy website states that she married Andrew George Crouch of Georgia on 12 Jan 1919, and that they were the parents of Andrew George Crouch Jr (b. 1919) and Mary Virginia Crouch (b. 1921).
The Texas Divorce index shows he was married to a "Virginia" from 31 Dec 1952 to 21 Oct 1969. At the time of their divorce, it was shown they had one child.
His Texas Death Certificate shows he was divorced at the time of his death. His usual occupation was "Inspector, LTV." His status as a veteran of the armed forces was left blank. Informant was C. W. Grantham Jr, relationship, if any, not stated.
Transcriptions of their marriage records show her last name as McLemore, and a transcription of "The McLemore Family Bible, 1822-1859 owned by Hillis Fry McLemore of Jackson, MS and contributed by Fairy B. McLemore Edwards of Canyon Lake, Texas,shows her birth information on page 2:
Bithinia Ann Green McLemore, daughter of Robert
McLemore and Leah Prior Perkins, his wife, was born
19th day of October 1807
And on page 3, her death was recorded as follows:

She was preceded in death by her husband of 50 plus years, Wade H. Roberts, also from Wise. She was the last survivor of five siblings being pre-deceased by three brothers, John, Ben Dale and Colby; and her sister, Dolly.
Survived by her three loving children; Wade, Theresa and James Gary; six grandchildren, Kimberly, Kean, Wade III, Wesley, Cassidy and Helen; four great-grandchildren, Alexis, Sydney, James and Quinn, she always had time for each of them. In fact, among her many loves were long periods of time spent watching her children perform. She also doted on her rose garden.
It would not be an exaggeration to call her a "world traveler." At every opportunity, she was prepared to gallivant throughout the country and to many international destinations (e,g. Paris, London, Newfoundland, etc.) Born in Big Stone Gap and graduated from Wise High School, Betty proceeded to live in the states of Florida, Mississippi, Louisiana, Tennessee, Colorado, California and Kansas (her husband was in the Air Force). Upon her husband's retirement from the military, they returned to Wise, bought the home of her childhood and resided there for over 25 years. She then crossed the country to live in Fair Oaks to be close to her daughter where she passed peacefully earlier this year.
Celebration of Betty's Life will be held at 2 p.m. Saturday, May 22 at the Sturgill Funeral Home chapel in Wise. Burial will follow in the Powell Valley Memorial Gardens in Big Stone Gap. Family will receive friends from 1 p.m. till time of services at 2 p.m.

At the time of his marriage, his place of residence was listed at U.S.S. Dahlqueen, New York, New York, and his occupation was shown as "Navy." His parents were shown as Brice McLemore Sr and Sallie McAnn. His place of birth was listed as Toney, Alabama.
Norma Miller (Nmiller896@aol.com) emailed, on 9-17-2006: "I descend through Briggs, his son Burl, his grandson John Melvin and my father, Earl Leonard McLemore. My parents live in Athens, Limestone County, AL and I live in Huntsville, Madison County, AL. I'm not sure all the children were mentioned in a will, or even if there was one, but they were mentioned in an estate inventory. Burrell was about 80 years old when they moved to Alabama and his wife had him give all the land and slaves to their children. When he died there wasn't enough money left to settle his debts. I would assume that he had already given property to children of his first marriage. Burrell was probably well-to-do as he was very active in the slave trade in the Nashville area. If there is anything else I can help with just let me know."
