Robert McClung of Georgia

ROBERT McCLUNG OF GEORGIA


6-4 ROBERT McCLUNG
GA1201

Robert McClung listed his birth as 13 Feb 1797 in Warren County, Georgia. (1867 Voting Registration Loyalty Oaths Individual Pardons, Winston Co., AL-contributed by Connie Rice). He was a son of John McClung, b. 1763 in PA and probably Elizabeth Bellah. John's parents were probably 2nd generation in America so we are starting Robert as the third generation. He was probably the fifth child in his family.

"The McClung Genealogy," 1904 by Wm. McClung lists this family as the Tennessee McClungs on p. 233. However, research has proven that this family belongs to the Georgia McClungs. The John McClung, Rev. soldier living in Warren County Georgia is likely the father of this Robert. John was in Warren Co. in early records and we know from his pension records that he is the John who was the revolutionary war soldier and who died in Sumner Co., TN. See Pension record of John.

Robert married Mary O'Dell (have not found this record civilly), probably in Georgia. Robert married 2) Mary Rhoden in AL according to the McC Gen, 1904. She was born about 1800 in SC and in the 1880 census she states that both her parents were born in SC.

The family had moved to Alabama by 1815.

By 1850, Robert is listed in the 1850 Hancock (now Winston) county census (p.361,house 58) with his wife, Mary and the remainder of his family (Elizabeth, Caroline, Warner, Jane, Marelda, Amelia and Sarah), Leroy having moved to Miss. earlier.

In 1860 Robert is listed in Lawrence County Al census (house 675) at age 65, b. GA; Mary age 55 (she said she was 50 in 1850) and next door to son John McClung and next to him was their daughter, Elizabeth McClung Barker.

The Alabama Records (Vol. 10 #2, Dec. 1875, p. 4) lists Robert McClung who signed a petition of Wm. B. Looney for a pension in Winston County in Decatur, AL, June 1867.

We find no further record of Robert. He would have been aged 72 when signing the petition so it is likely that he is buried in Winston county. We would welcome this record.


In 1880 Mary is found in the census in Winston Co., AL. with Louhena and Dorcas living with her. These girls both state that their parents were born in South Carolina.

GA1202

The first known child of Robert and Mary O'Dell McClung was born in 1815 in Alabama. He married Margaret Green 17 Sep 1841 in Itawamba, MS (Itawamba Mg Rcds). The couple was listed in the 1841 Itawamba County, MS State Census, p. 11 with no children. In 1850 the family is listed in the Federal Census for MS, Itawamba Co. with Leroy age 33, farmer, b. AL; wife, Margaret, age 34, b. Georgia. Their children are Mary, 8; Robert, 7; Lucy, 6; and Sarah E., 6/12, all born in MS. Leroy enlisted in Confederate Service 15 Apr 1862 at Grayson Co, TX. at age 45. He served in Hardeman's Reg't Texas Cav. as a private.

The Texas Legislature in Dec. 1863 passed the "Act to Support the Families and Dependents of Texas Soldiers." A million dollars was set aside to distribute to the families of soldiers who were in active service, had died in the war or had been disabled because of the war. Additionally cloth and excess thread from the State Penitentiary were given to these families after Nov. 1864. Listed among Grayson Co., Texas indigents were: McClung, Mrs., in the family, taken on 17 Feb 1864.

In the 1880 Fannin County, TX census, Leroy and Margaret, both age 65 years, were enumerated in the home of their daughter Nancy and son-in-law Martin Luther McDaniel. Nancy was age 23, b. in AL. Their children listed were Willis, Maggie, and Rebecca.

Leroy McClung is buried in Timber Creek Cem., northwest of Bonham, Fannin Co., TX. It is located south of Owens Chapel Cem. The farm where the cemetery is located was owned by R.C. Walker in the 1920s. The deaths here occurred in the 1870s and 80s. All the markers are gone, the last ones hauled off in 1968 but the cemetery was published in a book by Floy Hodge in the 1960s. It includes Leroy McClung 1815-1880. (Material submitted by Bill Davenport, researcher).

The 1860 Census of Winston Co., AL (P. 12: Township 10, Range 9; Littlesville PO; #84/84; 22 June 1860; Jas M. Bibb, Asst Marshall) shows Vinyard b. 1833 in AL, Farmer; Nancy 40(?) F TN' Amanda 14 F TN; Missouri 10 F TN; Tennessee 13 F TN; McCay A. 5 F TN; Martha 3 F AL; Mary F. 1 F AL.

In the 1867 Voting Registration Loyalty Oaths Individual Pardons, Winston County, Alabama, Vineyard lists his birth as October, 1830 in Blount County, Alabama.

McClung Vinyard, D Company 1st Alabama Cavalry. (This was a Union regiment) Private Private 000263 0001 00001470. Widow Nancy applied for a federal pension on August 26, 1891.

We have not found the marriage record of Vinyard and Nancy. Although Vineyard McClung isn't found in the 1850 census, it would appear that Nancy may have been the wife of John Bird/Byrd. Two children, Amanda and Tennessee Bird were of the correct ages to be Amanda and Tennessee McClung who were listed on the 1860 census. Missouri Bird/McClung was probably born just after the 1850 census. We don't find John Bird/Byrd on the 1860 census. Also note the gap in ages in these children. Benjamin Williams was the son of Mary Williams. Debbie has not identified his father.

1-6 AMANDA McCLUNG
GA1276

The first child of Vinyard and Nancy McClung was born c 1846 in TN. She married Benjamin Williams, also of Winston Co., AL. Amanda "Manda" Williams was on the 1900 census of Cross County, AR living in the household of her daughter and son in law, William and Mary A. Williams Bradshaw. Amanda had remarried after the death of Benjamin Williams to someone by the name of Hammack. At the time of the 1880 census, Amanda and her children were living in Hardin County, TN. Although Amanda was listed as married, it appears that she was widowed.

The family of Amanda Williams apparently moved to Mississippi after 1870, and to Tennessee by 1880. They moved back to Mississippi sometime after the 1880 census (most likely where Amanda married a Hammack)and then to Arkansas by 1900. The whereabouts of Amanda (Byrd or McClung) Williams Hammack have not been located after leaving Arkansas.

Their children were James Allen Willians (great grandfather of Debbie Yates)

He bought 80 acres of Alabama land through the Huntsville office in December 1859. He has not been located in the 1860 census and may have been on his way to Arkansas that year. He enlisted in F Company of the 24th Arkansas Infantry, CSA, on 6-21-1862 at Washington, Hempstead County, AR. A fellow soldier in that company was John H. Rhyne (probably a brother-in-law) who died in Oct 1862. There were also two Barretts in the regiment. Warren, and others, transferred to an Artillery Battery (Harts) on August 24, 1862.

He married Matilda E. Barrett on October 31, 1869. She was born ca 1848. There was a notation "Colored" in the marriage record. What that means is unclear. Was a clerk making a judgement based on appearances or was it just an error? We do not know. They are given as White in the censuses.

In the 1870 census his family was at Mount Hope, Lawrence County, AL and in the 1880 census they were in Tishomingo County, MS.

In the 1880 census, they had five children: Robert V. b. 1871; John L. b. 1873; Richard W. b. 1874; Joseph P. b. 1877; Elizabeth J. b. 1879. All the children were born in Alabama except Elizabeth, born in Mississippi.

GA1290

The ninth child of Robert and Mary Roden McClung was born ca 1831. She married Vincent S. Roden (1834-?), md 1 May 1892 at Winston, AL. Vincent was her first cousin, the son of Wright Roden and Elizabeth McClung, the daughter of Soldier John and his first wife, Elizabeth. She married at age 61-2 so probably had no children of her own.

There was a Levi Jasper Roden b.Aug. 1851 & died 7 Dec 1911. He md Eliza Murrah. It is uncertain how he is related.

By 1870 (Marion Co., AL census) Vincent's wife was an Elizabeth. Son William was b. ca 1863 and there was a daughter, "Beady" born ca 1869. With this six year gap in ages, William probably belonged to Louhena.
