Where did this John Lee go? 1810 Charlotte Co., VA census, aged 26-45 1812, Feb. married in Charlotte Co. to Frances WEBB (widow) (Maybe Frances Terry m. Lazarus Webb 1807.) 1820 Lunenburg Co., VA census 1 male 26-45 4 females under 10 1 female 26-45 3 in agriculture 4 slaves total This family of Lees lived in Charlotte County, right at the Lunenburg County line. John Lee Jr left the area apparently between 1820 & 1830. If he had any sons, they were born after 1820. The last mention I have of him was mention of him in a letter: In Aug 1845 or 1847 his nephew, Edward Lee Jr., wrote from Pickens Co., AL, to his sister in Lunenburg Co., VA. "I believe now that Tennessee is the best place to go get prosperous. . . I was in Tennessee last summer and I liked that country tolerable well. The land is very rich but very high. OUR OLD UNCLE JOHN LEE wanted me to move up there but I rather go with you all to Texas if I can." It sounds as if Uncle John Lee was already in Tenn., but maybe Alabama? Any clue to this John LEE?

In a message dated 97-06-08 20:06:08 EDT, you write: << NO info on Herbert or James But thanksI will keep it for ref. When u have Lea instead of Lee canit be a spelling error?All my Lee boys dissappeared. Would U Have a way of lup Civil War vets for me To try that angle. HATE TYPING!!!!!!!! obviously. Again thanks! KLee367710 >> KLee, I have found both spellings (and also Leigh) in my research. I have found both Lea and Lee for my family alone. So, not necessarily a spelling error but just the different way the people recording thought it should be spelled. I am right now working on doing the marriage index for LEE for East TN marriages and then (if I hold up) I have some census (1840, 1850 and 1860) that I want to get entered and that I plan to share when I do get it entered. And, I also have W. TN LEE and LEA marriages. No mid TN yet but plan to have it too sometime. Sorry, but I have no way to look up Civil war records right now. I do have the actual civil war record for my Ninian (Nineon) LEE but that's it. Maybe your local library can help you out on that. :-) Cathy

Thanks.

I am looking for more information on my grandfather William Robert Lay born about 1854 in Tennessee. Any information would be greatful. Thanks Grace

I felt bad not listing all the LEE marriages that I found, but I am working with a broken right hand, and have to hunt & peck left-handed. This is what I found for Marriages in Butler Co., KY: LEE, Benjamin - McKINNEY, Harriett 21 Feb 1824 LEE, E. P. - ONEEL, Magdaline 30 Mar 1848 LEE, George M. - NEILL, Casandra S. 20 Jan 1853 LEE, James E. - REYNOLDS, Mary Ann 21 Jan 1830 LEE, Jesse - STONE, Ellender 23 Nov 1855 LEE, Jesse J. - SWEATT, Martha J. 07 Sep 1853 ****** LEE, Jincy - SMITH, Tarlton 26 Dec 1820 LEE, John - RANDOLPH, Elizabeth 11 Apr 1825 LEE, John W. - SHELTON, Nancy 12 Mar 1831 LEE, Louisa - NEIL, William C. 21 Mar 1826 LEE, Lucinda - PENDLETON, Peter D. 28 Apr 1819 LEE, Mahala - MANSFIELD, Jesse 28 Oct 1841 LEE, Margaret H. - WOODRIDGE, R. T. 07 Sep 1853 LEE, Nancy - MAXWELL, James 17 Jan 1843 LEE, S. E. Miss - MAHON, L. W. 10 Feb 1848 LEE, Sarah Elizabeth - PEDIGO, James H. 20 Jan 1858 LEE, William H. - PARISH, Missouri A. 05 Mar 1856 LEE, William M. - POPE, Hetty J. 21 Jun 1836 I seen that you were talking about Lee Families from Butler County KY. My Lee family also came from Butler Co, KY. The fartherest we have been able to track back is to John W. Lee b. abt 1810 KY, who we think married a Martha Unknown. We do not know his parents names. We think his father may have been "William" or "Jesse".

I have completed a small portion of my project to enter all my LEA/LEE info into my computer and thought I might as well send it on.... so here it is. This an index of East TN LEA Grooms and Brides. It includes the names, marriage date, and County Symbol for the County the marriage occured in. East TN includes the following counties (with each county symbol following the name): Anderson (A), Blount (Bo), Campbell (C), Carter (Ct), Claiborne (Cl), Grainger (Gr), Greene (Ge), Hamilton (H), Hawkins (Hw), Jefferson (Je), Johnson (Jo), Knox (K), McMinn (Mc), Meigs (Me), Monroe (Mo), Rhea (R), Roane (Ro), Scott (S), Sevier (Se), Washington (Wa). Where there are 2 dates entered the second is the date the marriage was actually recorded. All of these entries were taken from Sistler and Associates early East TN marriages.

Yes I would be very interested, my Lees came to Pa from Belgium then moved on to Oh and points farther west but may have some other connections so I would be very interested in what you have. thanks Bob

Hi Helen! We have Story County families in our lineage. Here is our LEE connection: Name: Missouri Adeline LEE Birth Place: Hickman Co., Clinton, KY Death Date: Sep 17, 1898/1899 Death Place: Scott Co., Sikeston, MO Burial Place: Bertram, MO Occupation: Housewife Father: Unknown LEE Mother: Unknown Spouse: Gerrit Smith GATES Marriage Date: 1892 Marriage Place: Lexington, KY Children: Retta Eugenia Ruth Spouse: Unknown WREN Children: Rufus Robert (Bob) Unknown Clara Rose Maime Unknown Tirzah Eliza Notes: We have a picture of an oil painting done of her Wren family. Dec. 1895 address: Lancaster, WI Last Modified: Apr 6, 1996 ******************* Retta was my grandmother who married Luther WHITAKER. Didn't know if this LEE was a possible match for you or not. We certainly would like to correspond with anyone who would know more about Missouri Adeline LEE. Thanks. Interested in hearing from you. Marla (WHITAKER/BROWN) Brubaker BTW: I was born in Ames, IA (Story Co.)!!

I think I may have a theory--was your James Lee b. in VA? Was he possibly a son of William Lee? Possibly was he a brother of Wm M Lee? At one time, did he live in Butler Co., KY? I think I have deduced that William Lee b. 1777 in VA, m. Frances, and moved to Butler Co., KY--he died in 1815 or so. His widow, Frances lived on the property on Big Muddy Creek--she paid taxes until she died in ca. 1832, then James Lee sold his 1/5 share of property to Wm. M. Lee, and he moved. Possibly, was this your James Lee? Do you see any connection? Thanks, DVHaack@aol.com

Nothing clicks at the moment. I'll get back to you in a few days - we are going out of town for a few days. Doris Tazelaar

I am working on the James LEE line that were in Bartholomew Co., IN that went to Story Co., IA. I am enclosing an outline; Descendants of Mary Frances Lee 1 Frankie Lee 1870 - . +Jasper Myers 1866 - ........ 2 William Blake Myers 1891 - 1955 ............ +Lenore Seal 1894 - 1982 ................... 3 Hazel Lois Myers 1911 - 1993 Descendants of James Lee 1 James Lee Abt 1838 - . +Sarah Pence Abt 1842 - ........ 2 Frankie Lee 1870 - ............ +Jasper Myers 1866 - ................... 3 William Blake Myers 1891 - 1955 ....................... +Lenore Seal 1894 - 1982 .............................. 4 Hazel Lois Myers 1911 - 1993 The family in Iowa insists that Frankie LEE was a descendant of the Robert E. LEE line. Does anyone know how James LEE and Sarah PENCE fit into the family. Jasper MYERS b 1866 Bartholomew Co., IN was s/o William MYERS and Eliza BANKS of Bartholomew Co., IN. William MYERS was married 15 Dec 1824 Bartholomew Co., IN, and was in the 1860 census there and in Story Co., IA by 1870 census. I would be happy to exchange info.

Re my message, lst sentence, "One parcel of land that he bought in IN" - I haven't learned how to save something in "compose mail" (offline) and then pick it up later. I was interrupted, thought I had corrected my problem, and went blissfully on my way. One parcel of land that he bought in IN was signed for by James LEE. Another parcel, nearby, was purchased by Lewis LEE. I think these transactions were made in 1837, although my TGLEE was in Bartholomew Co by 1823. Thomas Greene LEE and Jane (Jennie) MCQUEEN named their children like this: (1) James Mcqueen LEE (b. 1822); (2) Mary Ann LEE (b. 1824, m. William C. RICHARDSON); (3) Elizabeth LEE (b. 1827, m. MCKINNEY); (4) Amanda M. LEE (b. 1829) (5) Martha J. LEE (b. 1831); (6) Missouri LEE (b. 1834, m. DEAN); (7) Virginia LEE (b. 1838) (8) Nancy LEE (b. 1841); (9) T. A. Howard LEE (b. 1846); (10) Marshall Dorr LEE, b. 1846 and (11) Melissa LEE (b. 1849, m. Noah PERRY). All children were born in Bartholomew Co. Thomas Greene LEE d. 1874, Jennie died 1874, three months later. TGLEE's obituary states he had 12 children, 8 girls, 4 boys, with 3 girls and 2 boys living when he died. My Mary Ann LEE RICHARDSON died 1869, presumably after childbirth. My grandmother, Mary Clara RICHARDSON, was 5 when she died, so there was very little family history passed on to her, as she was raised by the RICHARDSON side of the family.

I've had correspondence with the other John LEE family in Bartholomew Co IN. It looked like there could be a connection, as they got to Bartholomew Co about the same time. That's the trouble - oral history says the father of Thomas Greene LEE was John LEE who married Mary Ann BRANDON. I have is no further information on John LEE except where he married Mary Ann, and who his bondsman was (Philip LEE). I know about the Philip LEE in Maryland - think he returned to England? But I can't find anything in NC or TN records on a will - and I live in Maryland, have found nothing here. sighhhhhhhhhhh. Another matter - John LEE spelled his name LEA, although that could have been the clerk's preference, not his. And Abner LEA was married not long before John, in the same county. If we could find out who John LEE and Philip LEE were, we'd have solved a mystery the family has been working on or writing about for the past 50 years. I've wondered if Thomas Greene LEE was illegitimate - but he was educated well, knew law, etc., and had enough money to buy land. (Some of it he may have gotten by rounding up stray horses in Missouri, too. There are records of his doing that.) No, I know of no connection to Thoms LEE of Hawkins, TN.

For those of you researching John Lee of Bartholomew Co. IN. I also have a John Lee, son of William, b. 1767 m. Isabel Hays; moved from VA to Greene Co. PA, to Warren Co. OH to Bartholomew Co. IN where he died. His widow married Colston Payne of Fauquier Co. VA. This John dies in Bartholomew County. Who was the father of the below named John? Is he connected to the Thomas Lee of Hawkins Co. TN? Pat DorisTaz@aol.com wrote: > > Angela and Greg - Maybe, just maybe! > > My John LEE, no definite dates, probably 1767-1812, m.
