Hi Nora; Well, I am not sure I will be able to help but.... For your Elizabeth LEE b. 1803, I have the daughter of Miller LEE and Margaret "Peggy" CARSON. Elizabeth was born 3 Mar 1803. Miller is b. 1 Jul 1769 Buckingham, VA. He was married in Campbell Co., Virginia and a year later moved to Logan Co., Virginia and then a few more years to Butler Co., Virginia where he and Peggy lived for 12 years. Then they moved back to Logan, Co. on the "Big Whipporwill" and lived there for 3 years then to Christian Co., Virginia where they buried their 8th child (11 mon). Had another son then in the fall of 1818 moved to Talladega Co. In late Feb of 1847 they moved to Caddo Parish, Louisianna then last of Jan 1848 moved to Rusk Co near Main Rabbit Creek. If you think this is a line you want I can give you more. I couldn't find any plausible matches on the other two. Good luck! ---Lorraine On Wednesday, February 16, 2005, at 08:39 AM, [email protected] wrote: > Lorane, > IF you have been collecting for 20 years or so, you have a lot of > Lees!  I am a Lee researcher also.  But, I have two lines and they > don't seem to connect at all...so I have double the search that you > have.  I have been sitting at the brick wall for so long that I think > I have roots that keep me there! >   > Could you check your files for these? >   > ELIZABETH LEE (Betsy)  b. 1803.  Married Charles Palmer b. 1795 of > Screven Co.
