In addition, he corresponded with Mr. Samuel E. McClendon of Thomasville,
Georgia and New Orleans, Louisiana. Mr. McClendon was an employee of the
U.S. Department of Agriculture and his job took him all over the Southern
United States. He spent his off-hours on the road digging through the archived records of the
various Courthouses in the towns in which he was
staying and copied all of the references to the names McLendon and McClendon that he could find.
He copied marriages, deeds, Wills, estate sales, settlements, probate records, anything and everything that mentioned the names.
Mr. McClendon sent all of his collection of McLendon/McClendon information
to Leonardo Andrea, who combined it with his own to form the largest collection of data
on the name. The Church of Latter Day Saints (Mormons)
microfilmed the entire collection of McLendon/McClendon data to preserve it, but without knowledge of
how to obtain the film and without the proper
machinery to view the film, it remained largely unused by hobbyist/researchers.
Now every page of information collected by Leonardo Andrea and Samuel E.
McClendon has been transcribed from the microfilm and published in a printed book;
easily obtainable and readable by all persons wishing to know
more about their McLendon/McClendon ancestors.
