The first record referring to Robert Harris occurs 1659 (see Browne, Nugent I pg389). From this and a number of other records, it can be established that the land of Robert Harris was on the northern side of Ware Creek just east of present day Barhamsville, Virginia. This also establishes that Robert Harris was probably born about 1630-1635. It has been stated in various studies on Robert Harris of Ware Creek that there was no patent recorded for his property there. That is not correct. The patent (Nugent I pg489) is incorrectly listed as Robert Harrison. It is probably a transcribing error that could have occurred at any number of times. An extensive search shows there was no one named Robert Harrison in that place at that time, and the property described in the patent is precisely that which, in all other cases, is listed as Robert Harris. The patent was recorded on 6 Dec 1662 and is for 389 acres. Although the property had been patented previously, the transfer to Robert Harris came as an assignment from none other than Richard Croshaw. As with the earlier assignments by Joseph Croshaw to James Harris and John Butler, there were no headright claims so the property was either sold or a gift by Richard Croshaw. There definitely appeared to be an on-going relationship between the Croshaw family and the Harris family, probably indicating a marriage somewhere in that second generation. Today, Route 60/30 roughly follows the old path and passes very close to the Robert Harris property, a distance of about 15 miles from the William Harris property at Jamestown. Of course, it is important to show that one of the neighboring property owners of Robert Harris was William Overton who was the father of Temperance Overton (Nugent II pg218). The Forks" area around what is now Doswell in Hanover County. The colonial capital of Va was moved to Williamsburg 1698. After that, Jamestown fell into ruin as an active town and port while Yorktown began to flourish. While there are no further indications of anyone named Harris in what few James City Co records exist, there are three men who appear to be in the same generation in the York County records in early 1700s, a William, Robert, and Thomas Harris. The main road from Williamsburg to Yorktown was referred to as the "Horse Path" and the Robert Harris land was just on the western side of this road. It is now located inside the Naval Weapons Center and is about 10 miles from Jamestown. The property first belonged to William Brocas of Warwick Co and was adjacent to the property of Henry Lee on the north and Edward Baptist on the east. There would be marriages involved with both of these families. When Robert Harris died 1716, his sons were just coming of age. Only Matthew appeared to be married at that time. That places the sons as being born in 1690-95 period which works out with Robert Harris being born around 1655-60 and that, in turn, works out with the William Harris at Jamestown coming of age around 1655. Although there appear to be no firm records to definitely link Robert Harris of Yorktown to William Harris of Jamestown, the proximity, demise of Jamestown, and near-perfect timeline would certainly seem to suggest the connection. Robert Harris, believed to be third son of William Harris [James & Wm]. The first record referring to Robert Harris occurs in 1659 (see Browne, Nugent I pg389). From this and a number of other records, it can be established that the land of Robert Harris was on the northern side of Ware Creek just east of present day Barhamsville, Virginia. This also establishes that Robert Harris was probably born about 1630-1635. Two of the sons of Robert Harris of Yorktown lead to well documented Harris descendant lines. Matthew Harris married Elizabeth Lee and their offspring migrated up the York River watershed, leaving descendants in various counties all the way to the mountains of Va around Albemarle Co. The oldest son Robert Harris md Mary Starke and that, in a roundabout way, led to the George Fuller Harris line. George Fuller Harris migrated to Pittsylvania Co Va by 1782 and then to Lincoln Co Ky by 1810, leaving descendants in both places. Youngest son John Harris remained in York Co where he left descendants who are, as yet, undocumented.

I am trying to locate descendants of the Peter A & Ann M (Frazier) Lee family found on the Lamar County Census, 1860-70--80 etc. I am trying to determine if my GGrandfather John William Lee was their oldest son. The birth date of their son is close to my GGrandfather's and we've never been able to find another John Lee that matches even this well. My GGrandfather John Wm Lee, b. 1847-48, VA, d. 6 May 1918, OK; Married 3 times: #1, Mary Narcissa Davis, m. 1869 Collin Co., TX; #2, Rachel Jane (?Moody/Keaton), m. abt 1876 in (?) #3, Anna Lee Newton, m. April 1899 in Van Zandt Co., TX. There is a picture of our John Wm Lee on our Home Page, URL below. Appreciate any information you can provide, Thank you for your time.

Hello, I am trying to find out more about a BOLER LEE who lived in Augusta and Rockingham counties of Virginia. He is listed in 1769 in Augusta. Who was he and what is know about him. Thanks Sandra

Seems I remember that your Thomas Lee also married a Mary Rains. Her original maiden name was Mary Ingram. I think I determined that her father was a Richard Ingram. Thomas and Mary had a girl named Mary but she also married another not a James Ingram -whom I am searching and is my brick wall. I just wonder if Lee was her middle name and I am just barking up the wrong tree. I know just about every census I find my Ingram's there are Lee's, Kepplers, Roberts, Gilenwaters, etc. so I know they all helped each other out with moving and farming. Well, thanks for the information. Always good for a review. dianne --- [email protected] wrote: > I have been following your post with the connections > between the LEE and > Ingram line.

I have been following your post with the connections between the LEE and Ingram line. I would like to add the following to the mix. I a not add much more to 1. Richard1 Lee; This may not be a member of our line of LEE/LEA family. In an attempt to carry the line back as far as possible, many possibilities occur between several lines of LEE families. Among LEE researchers a debate rages as to whom belong with whom from William Lea Sr. back to this Richard Lee. I have made this link after looking at an overwhelming amount of data.

I am afraid I am no help with your Abel Lee. I do have a Wm C. or G. Lee but he is too early to be yours born on Feb 17, 1789 son of Sgt Wm Lee of the Am Rev War, Sgt Lee's daughter was Phoebe Watkins Lee who married Fouchee Tibbs of Tibbs Bend area of Taylor Co (old Green Co., KY) where they lived all their lives. So my Lee's came from Virginia to Kentucky and stayed there although I am sure some of the others moved around and MO and TX is where many of our Kentuckians moved to if they left here. Good luck in your searches. Marsha -----Original Message----- From: JAG [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Saturday, November 27, 2004 11:21 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [Norton AntiSpam] [LEE] Lee's of Virginia to KY to MO Marsha, John and all: Here again, my LEE's have traveled along from VA to KY to MO and then WILLIAM G. LEE finally on to TX. My great grandmother, PHEBE ANN LEE, b. Feb. 11, 1851 in HUNT CO., TX to WILLIAM G. LEE, b. Sep. 11, 1805 KY, said her father was a cousin to Gen. Robert E. Lee. Here is a short recap of what I know as fact through Bible records, census, deeds & a will. Maybe this intersects with some of the research of one or more of you. I hope to hear back from some of you. Thanks for checking the following and Happy Thanksgiving to you all, Lynda Wyatt Green LEE DESCENDANCY & NOTES: 1.. ABEL LEE, b. Oct. 8, 1783 VA (or might have been NC since the lines changed in the early days), d. Dec 25, 1859. He married PHEBE (Unknown), b. Jan. 27, 1788, d. Nov. 21, 1846. My Bible says PHEBE LEE but I don't know if this was her maiden name or her married name. He possibly could have married again in MO between Phebe's death in 1846 and his in 1859. 2. WILLIAM G. LEE, b. Sept. 11, 1805 KY, d. Jan 14, 1873 Hunt Co., TX, married MELISSA SHELLEY, on Jan. 21, 1836 probably in Carroll Co., AR. She was b. Mar. 26, 1818 AR, d. Aug. 9, 1846 in Hunt Co. TX according to part of estate settlement. They had the following children: ABEL G. LEE, b. Feb 6, 1837 AR (probably Carroll Co.), d. Feb 19, 1899, married Feb 22, 1869 Hunt co., TX to MRS. MARTHA E. (THOMPSON) GIBSON, b. Apr. 2, 1845 IL, d. May 12, 1890 Wise Co., TX. She had a son from previous marriage named WILLIAM MARTIN GIBSON (GIPSON) b. abt. 1866 TX. JOHN WILLIAM LEE, b. Apr 22, 1839 Barry Co., MO, d. Jul 20, 1887 Wise Co., TX, marr. Mar 28, 1867 in Hunt Co., TX to NANCY JANE HAMRICK, b. Jun 4, 1848 Polk Co., AR, d. Sept 7, 1932 in Montague Co., TX. ROBERT W. LEE, b.

They had the following children: ROBERT H. LEE, June 10, 1848 PHEBE ANN LEE, b. Feb 11, 1851 Hunt Co., TX, d. Jun 24, 1925 Harper, Gillespie Co., TX, marr. Nov. 4, 1866 Hunt Co., TX to DANIEL WEBSTER SAGESER, b. Feb 13, 1846 MO, d. Oct 11, 1931, Harper, Gillespie Co., TX. MELISSA LEE, b. Apr 15, 1853 Hunt Co., TX, d. Bet. 1877-1880 Hunt Co., TX, marr. Dec 31, 1868 Hunt co., TX to JOHN WALLACE b. bet. 1848-1850 AR. THOMAS H. LEE, b. Nov. 22, 1855 TX NANCY LEE, b. Oct. 25, 1857 Hunt Co., TX, d. Feb 14, 1932 Fannin Co., TX, marr. THOMAS J. GREENWOOD, b. Feb 7, 1853 IL, d. Dec 27, 1910 Fannin Co., TX. JAMES HENRY LEE, b. Jul 29, 1860 Hunt Co., TX, d. Dec. 24, 1927 Amorita, OK, m. SARAH LUCY WILSON. PROOF SOURCES: 2 Bibles, tax records, land records, marriage licenses, tombstones, William G. Lee estate settlement, CSA & Union Military Service records, Union Civil War Pension Records & U.S. Census. NOTES: I first find "an" ABEL LEE on BARRY CO., MO. Land Certificate #2587 including a sworn statement indicating he was on the property by 1833. These witness statements were signed by GEORGE M. GIBSON & DANL LEE. Barry Co. was formed in 1835 so it would have actually still been Greene Co. at Abel's time of arrival. The certificate wasn't officially finished and posted until Aug. 6, 1839, & was designated BARRY CO. In 1834, GREENE CO., MO, ABEL & William G. were both taxed, living near one another. WILLIAM G. LEE was on the 1837 CARROLL CO., ARK. tax list and his oldest son, ABEL G. LEE, was born in ARK, Feb. 6, 1837. MELISSA SHELLEY, W.G.'s first wife, was born in AR & ABRAM & LETICIA SHELLEY are on 1835 CARROLL CO. AR Tax List. LETICIA WAGNON is in my Bible record being b. Feb. 9, 1817, which would seem to be Melissa's sister since she is only 1 year older. Next I find WILLIAM G. on BARRY CO., MO. Land Certificate #2586 with witness sworn statements indicating he was on that land since Feb. 22, 1838. These witnesses were DANIEL G. LEE & ROBERT LEE. W.G. is not on the 1838 Carroll Co., AR tax list. His next child, JOHN W. was born Apr. 22, 1839 in Barry Co. WILLIAM G. paid $50. on a receipt dated Mar. 25, 1840, on BARRY CO., MO. Land Certificate #5854. There is only one ABEL LEE on the 1840 BARRY CO., MO. Sugar Creek Township census and it indicates he & his wife would be in the correct age bracket. My Abel's wife, PHEBE, died Nov. 21, 1846. WILLIAM G. & Melissa's 4th child, WILLIAM C. was b. Dec. 10, 1841, LINN CO., MO., which is totally out of the area for William G. but maybe they were visiting some of old Abel or William G's ancestors there. OLD ABEL's wife, Phebe, died Nov. 21, 1846, and he would have had plenty of time to remarry before he died on Dec. 25, 1859. WILLIAM G.'s 1st wife, MELISSA (SHELLEY) d. Aug. 9, 1846, and he marries 2nd wife, MRS. MARY A. ROBERTS, in HOPKINS CO., TX, Jul. 15, 1847, and is on the 1850 HUNT CO., TX census. There are 3 ABEL LEEs in the 1850 BARRY CO., MO census, one is only 25, one with a wife named Lucy & the other named Lucinda. That seems just too coincidental. My Abel would have been 67 yrs. old on Oct. 8, 1850; the 2 Abel's listed are 63 & 68. The Rev. Abel Lee that married, Lucinda Hill, for his wife #2, seems a likely match but the age is further off than the Abel listed as 68 years old with several children still at home. I'm beginning to think these 2 ABEL's are the same person and were listed twice on the 1850 census because he still had his original home & land and possibly was listed the 2nd time with the new wife, Lucinda, and her children at their house. I would welcome the list members' thoughts on this possibility. Do any of you know what happened to Lucinda (Hill) Lee after this census or possibly where she is buried? Does anyone know where her husband, Abel Lee was buried? I'm searching for tombstone information on ABEL LEE, PHEBE LEE & MELISSA (SHELLEY) LEE and hopefully an estate settlement, guardianship papers or a will probate that will list Abel's children in order to pin down which Abel is William G. Lee's father. It would really be nice to learn what W.G.'s middle name is that started with the letter "G". This WILLIAM G. and an ABEL were side by side in the above listed land documents and would seem to be father and son. I think this information would probably be in GREEN, BARRY and/or LAWRENCE CO., MO. ----- Original Message ----- From: "John Philip Adams" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Friday, November 26, 2004 2:36 PM Subject: RE: [LEE] Lee's of Virginia to Kentucky > Please check the Cobb's Hal side of the family.
