John S. McClean was the son of John McLean and Elizabeth Smith. He had a brother, Horace that served in the Hillard’s Legion. At the Battle of the Crater, as a member of the 59th Alabama, Horace would receive a mortal wound from an exploding shell and then die in Richmond on August 2, 1864. He is buried in a common grave in Petersburg. He has a Find a Grave memorial in Mt. Pisgah and there are plans for a military tombstone to be erected for him next to his brother John.  

John S. McLean enlisted in 1861 in Company F the Billy Gilmer Gray by Captain Micklebrry P. Ferrell. In August this company and nine others were organized into the 14th Alabama in Auburn. The regiment was sent to Huntsville and then to Virginia where it was brigaded under General Pryor in Longstreet’s division. 

During the summer of 1862 the 14th was heavily engaged at Williamsburg, Seven Pines, Mechanicsville, Frazier Farm, and Malvern Hill. During this time John served as Assistant Quartermaster with the regimental staff. He also spent time sick and on furlough. In May Captain Ferrell was promoted to Major and john was elected Captain. 

He remained Captain through he remainder of the war. In 1864 there are records of administrative tasks being conducted by John and there is a record of being on leave in 1865. From 1863 to 1865 this regiment fought in all of the major battles of  the Army of Northern Virginia. Brewer makes the comment that Captain McLean was wounded several times. He died of yellow fever in 1866.
