Partha Hamilton emailed, in October 2011, that Mozelle passed away in California in 2002. I was unable to locate a Mozelle Hill on the SSDI that died in 2002. Possibly she remarried?
Robert Butler lists her as Mettie McLemore and Diane McLemore Harrison instead shows her as Mattie Hall.
Bonnie Adams Seiler, a niece, does not show a marriage to a Mr. HALL. She only lists a marriage to Joseph Forrest ATKINS. As Myrtie would only have been 14 at the time of the purported marriage to M.J. Hall, it appears that it may have actually been someone else who married him in 1904 in Cumberland County.

Obituary, per her FindAGrave memorial page created by WSalmond.
Myrtle McLemore Dutton
Funeral for Myrtle McLemore Dutton, 90, of Moulton was to be today, June 16, 2004, at 11 a.m. at Elliott Funeral Home with the Rev. Jackie Shelton officiating.
Burial was to be in Moulton Memory Gardens. Visitation was to be today from 10 to 11 a.m. at the funeral home.
Mrs. Dutton died Tuesday, June 15, 2004, at Summerford Nursing Home. She was born Nov. 5, 1913, in Lawrence County to Walter Thad McLemore and Della McCullough McLemore. She was a member of the Eastern Star and Central Park Baptist Church.
Survivors include one son, Maurice Dutton of Hohenwald, Tenn.; one daughter, Glenda Ford of Decatur; three sisters, Katie White of Falkville, Audrey Rogers of Decatur and Dorothy Parvin of Southgate, Mich.; five grandchildren, Fletcher Ford, Lisa Peery, Marion Dutton, Ed Dutton and Rod Dutton; and eight great-grandchildren.
Memorials may be made to Central Park Baptist Church of Decatur or to a favorite charity.
Said by Tom Heseltine to have been "born about 1793, married William PLUMLEE." The 1850 census, on which she was shown as 63, puts her date of birth earlier, circa 1787."
Nancy was married, according to the marriage bond issued on January 4, 1827 (Southampton Marriage Register, p. 367), to another McLemore, her cousin Joel (or perhaps John) McLemore, who was probably Joel the son of Howell McLemore, and neither subsequently appear in the records of the Southside clerk's office. (James L. McLemore, III, p. 67).
Married a Lockamy. There were numerous "Loccamy" families in Sampson County at the time of the 1860 census, but I could not find one indexed with a Nancy. There was a household in McDaniels Township consisting of Nathan and Martha I. Loccamy, with Martha being around the same age (28) as Nancy would have been.
At the time of the 1870 North Carolina Census, Sampson County, McDaniels Twp the following family is listed:
LOCKEMY Nancy 38 F W Keeping House $200 North Carolina Can't read/write
" George 4 M W at home North Carolina
McLEMORE David 18 M W Works on Farm North Carolina <---Appears to be her nephew, the orphaned son of Hezekiah McLemore
Bonnie Seiler shows that she married Daniel Lockemy, and that they were the parents of Etom, Anna, Moses, Needom, Anglelia, Robert and George.
Immediately following her household were Thomas and Rachel (McLemore) Smith.
According to Robert McLemore Butler, there was a Nancy McLEMORE of Sampson County who married, on 8 Feb 1858, Mr.Henry HALL. Marriage performed by Rev. Miles P. OWEN. It appears this was a different Nancy McLemore.
She and her brother Rufus were both very ill as young children. Rufus died young, but Addie grew into adulthood and married. She was never able to have children of her own, however.
She was living with her sister, Sarah WILLIAMS, in Luling, Texas, at the time of the 1880 census.

Nicole Brooks is interested in any photos or information on the slaves of Nancy's father, Sugars McLemore. She is asking because her third great grandmother was one of them and with whom he fathered several children who are her direct ancestors. Her ancestors name was Amanda, and Sugars purchased her sometime around the mid to late 1840s in Memphis and took her to Brownsville. She remained in his household until around 1856 when she was then gifted to his daughter Nancy (Nannie) Dabney McLemore after she married Thomas Cole. If you have any information relating to the slaves held by this family, please contact Nicole at the email address below:
At the time of the 1880 census, she was living with her sister and brother-in-law, Louisa and Mial ABERNATHY.
She is shown by some researchers as having married either David HOBBS or David HOBBS LAUDERDALE. His correct last name was Lauderdale, per the Social Security application of her daughter, Whitten Lauderdale Cowart.

Some researchers show her date of death as early as 1873. Henry Lee of McComb, Mississippi instead lists it as May 21, 1909, with her burial in the Green Creek Cemetery in Perry County, Mississippi. As this is the date that her husband's death was reported in a Covington County newspaper, he might be confusing the two.

Thought, but not proven, to be a brother of Keton J. McLemore, whom he lived next door to in Sabine Parish, Louisiana at the time of the 1850 Federal Census. It ia ASSUMED, but not proven, that both are sons of Sterling McLEMORE of Kentucky, and grandson of Ephraim McLEMORE and Hannah HUDSPETH. He appears to have been born in either Tennessee or Kentucky.
Melba Gene McLemore notes that on 26 Jun 1851, Nicholas H. McLemore, in consideration of the sum of $150 sold to a third party property that had formerly been owned by K.J. McLemore, in the State of Louisiana, Parish of Sabine.
(Research):
In Kathy Casagranda's 1850 Sabine Parish (Louisiana) Census Transcription, she has the family listed as follows:
620 McLemore, Nicholas 39 M Farmer Tennessee
620 McLemore, Jane 31 F Tennessee
620 McLemore, Sterling 14 M Mississippi
620 McLemore, Evaline 11 F Tennessee
620 McLemore, William 10 M Tennessee
620 McLemore, Jas 8 M Tennessee
620 McLemore, Laura 5 F Mississippi
620 McLemore, Robt 4 M Mississippi
620 McLemore, Chas 1 M Mississippi
Casagranda notes that the Nicholas McLemore family was still living in Sabine Parish at the time of the 1860 census with children James, Robert, Richard and Martha. After 1860, there were no further records for this family in the Parish. However, she noted that a large number of individuals named McLemore lived in Union Parish.
Listed immediately prior to the Nicholas McLemore's family in 1850 was that of K.J. and Rebecca McLemore. The relationship between the two families is not known with certainty, but they appear to be related based on their migration patterns and proximity.
In 1860, the family is transcribed by Casagranda as follows:
689 McLemore N.H. 47 M Minister-Meth $450 Ohio
689 McLemore Mrs. 42 F Tennessee
689 McLemore James 19 M Farm Laborer Tennessee

Rozella Payne Coggin writes that the fourth child of McLin Able and Lora Alexander McLemore was Obadiah Nephi, 4 October 1923 to 20 October 1995. My uncle Obbie never had any children although he did marry late in life to his cousin Inez Alexander Morrison McLemore. He is buried in Barker Cemetery in Western Limestone County, Alabama.
Octavia is often a name given to the eighth daughter, however it appears that Octavia may have actually been the ninth or tenth child born in Maclin and Nancy.
His Texas Death certificate listed his father as John McLemore and his mother as unknown. Occupation was shown as Retired Farmer. The informant was Arvel McLemore, a son, and burial place was simply shown as Ovilla, Texas, the same city he died in.

(Research):
Could Oscar have first married Margaret Emaline SESSOMS? Robert McLemore Butler has, in his notes, the following death notice:
Sampson County, NC Died Roseboro, NC 19 Dec 1956 Margaret Emaline McLemore b. 9 Feb 1861 F John Elson Sessoms M Penny Fisher Spouse OSCAR BERNICE McLEMORE Bk 44 p 251.
However, I don't think that the Oscar McLemore that Margaret married was Oscar Bernice McLemore, the son of Lofton. I believe this was another Oscar McLemore.
Oscar Bernice doesn't seem to be a likely fit for at least three reasons three reasons:
1) Oscar Bernice (assuming his date of birth is accurate) would have only been about 14 in 1895, when W. Oscar and Margaret got married.
Marriage record per Robert McLemore Butler:
* 1895 - Sampson County, NC .. Married .. 9 Mar 1895 .. M.O. McLemore (19) to Margaret E. Sessoms (21) .. Wit. J.W. Underwood, J.O. Johnson, S.B. Sessoms .. married at brides home.
2) Oscar Bernice was still listed with his parents in 1900, only five years after the date of the marriage, so it was either another Oscar that married Margaret, or Oscar Bernice had already been married and divorced. However, W.O. and Margarett McLemore executed a deed, referenced below, in 1905, so appear to have remained married.
Sampson County Deed Book Book 139, Page 133 Abstract of Deed W.O. McLEMORE to A. F. FISHER
Made this first day of September 1905 by W.O. McLEMORE wife Margrett McLEMORE of Sampson County and state of North Carolina of the first part to A.F. FISHER of Sampson County and state of North Carolina of the second part...in consideration of the sum of Three Dollars to them paid by A.F. FISHER....convey to said A.F. FISHER....a certain tract or parcel of land in Little Coharie Township....adjoining the lands of J.L. BULLARD A.F. FISHER house tract, and others....containing one acres of land more or less..
...whereof the said W.O. McLEMORE hath hereunto set their hands and seals the day and year above written W.O. McLEMORE MARGRETT McLEMORE Attest W.J. FAIRCLOTH, J.P.
...North Carolina Sampson County the foregoing certificate of W.J. Faircloth J.P of Sampson County is adjudged to be correct and sufficient Let the instruments with the certificate be registered Witness my hand this 31st day of Oct 1905 W.F. SESSOMS Clerk Superior Court Recorded Oct 31st, 1915 R.A. INGRAM Regr. of Deeds
3) The Oscar that was married to Margarett was usually listed as W.O. or W. Oscar McLemore. Oscar Bernice is usually listed as O.B. or Bernice McLemore.
I could not find a W.O. or Oscar or Margaret or Maggie INDEXED in 1900 or 1910. It is possible that I simply overlooked them.
It appears that W.O. died sometime before 1920, because on the 1920 and 1930 census, I do find Maggie as a widow. In 1920 she was in Little Coharie, and Cordia, Elisha*, Emma May and Ginnie were listed as children. In 1930, she is also in Little Coharie, with only Elisha* and Cordia (the two oldest children) still listed at home PLUS with a 12 year old niece, Mary McLemore.
Sampson County, NC .. Died .. 8 Jan 1986 .. *Elisha Anderson McLemore [b. 11 May 1900] ..F: Oscar McLemore M: Maggie Sessoms .. Bk 74 p 243. .. buried at Williams Cemetery, Sampson County, NC]

April Makerney initially theorized that Ethel McLemore, age 19, and shows as a daughter-in-law of Albert George McLemore at the time of the 1920 census was the widow of Owen. However, she later concluded that Ethel was actually Amos McLemore's widow.
Census instead shows him as Owen A, born ca 1878? May have died prior to 1910, as his mother indicates at the time of the 1910 census that she was the mother of 4 children, three of them still living.
His given name was P.D., though he used Paul David while in the military as they refused to accept only his initials.

Eldon and Ann McLemore of Derby, Kansas, show her as married to Rosser Pelham BIRDSONG. Her Pennsylvania Death certificate shows her as Pearl McLemore Birdsong, and that she died at the age of 39 of acute anemia from placent previa due to a puefperal infection of nearly two months duration.
April Makerney notes that she died in a housefire, apparently prior to the 1910 census, as she is no longer listed with the family, nor is she listed as a survivor in her father's obituary.
Vessie McLemore didn't see the importance of naming his children immediately after they were born. He was content to simply call them "baby" until a name seemed to fit. Percy remained Baby for several years, until his parents began to call him "Baby Percy" after a bottle of Patent Medicine popular at the time. His middle initial was shown as "C" on the 1920 census.
Percy started helping his father on the ranch at a very young age. Evon remembers him going on a freight train with cattle to Kansas City, by himself, when he was only 14. He also became a rancher, as well as operating a cotton gin that had been his fathers. He also kept bees as a hobby.
