James McLemore (1782–1834) was a white Baptist minister in Montgomery, Alabama. He was a leader of the Alabama Baptist Association and founder of a number of churches. He is known also for having an African American associate minister, the enslaved Caesar Blackwell. McLemore and his descendants acquired much land which developed into the 7000-acre McLemore Plantation, which was farmed first by enslaved people and later by sharecroppers and tenants.[1]
