*William Lemon married three times (to Louisa J. Grogan, Martha Ella Farris, and Alice Shugart, to whom we are related). Occasionally, the documents I reference here include information about William's first two wives and their children. I have only pursued information about Lemon-Shugart descendants on this page.*
