LEE OF VIRGINIA, 1642-1892. Biographical and Genealogical Sketches of the Descendants of Colonel Richard Lee. With Brief Notices of the Related Families of Allerton, Armistead, Ashton, Aylett, Bedinger, Beverley, Bland, Bolling, Carroll, Carter, Chambers, Corbin, Custis, Digges, Fairfax, Fitzhugh, Gardner, Grymes, Hanson, Jenings, Jones, Ludwell, Marshall, Mason, Page, Randolph, Shepherd, Shippen, Tabb, Taylor, Turberville, Washington, and Others The Lee family boasts perhaps the most distinguished ancestry on record, having provided, for example, greater numbers of Revolutionary and Civil War generals and officers, politicians, and statesmen than any family of comparable size and standing. This volume collects and preserves in permanent form the history of Colonel Lee's posterity. The life of Colonel Lee is traced, as well as existing records would allow, with each of his children and grandchildren and succeeding descendants being treated in like manner. Under the notice of each head of a family, the names of his children are given, numbered in the order of their birth. Whatever is known as to unmarried sons, and as to all daughters, is given with their parents. That equal prominence might be given to maternal ancestry, the work includes brief sketches of the parentage of wives of the Lees of the older generations. http://www.genealogical.com/item_detail.asp?afid=&ID=3310 __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
