**********************************************************************

Levi T. Pemberton, farmer and stock raiser of Linn Township, was born
in Wilson County, Tenn., November 30, 1846, and is a son of Jesse B.
Pemberton, whose sketch appears in this work.  He is the second of six
children, and made his parents' house his home until twenty-five years
of age, when he began the battle of life for himself, and on February
20, 1873, was united in marriage to Miss Mary Holman, who was born in
Dent County, Mo., October 27, 1847.  Her parents, William and Nancy
Holman, who were natives of Overton County, Tenn., came to Missouri in
1845, and were among the first settlers of the Meramec Valley, in Linn
Township.  Soon after his marriage Mr. Pemberton located on a farm in
Meramec Township, but at the end of nine years moved to the farm of 
284 acres on which he now resides.  It is one of the best in the Mera-
mec Valley, and 100 acres are under good cultivation.  He has always
been a highly respected citizen, and in his political views is a Demo-
crat, and is also a member of the order of Good Templars.  He and wife
are members of the Methodist Episcopal Church.
