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.
