I have been trying for years but so far am a failure. My Lee came from Iriland as Leigh to Spain. Then to the Spanish Territories in North America and finally in New Mexico Territory. My Mother In Law was born in Albequerque but there is no records. Some say the Catholic Church gave them new names or Spanish sounding names. If this be so the dates and most names are Armijo vice Lee. I can find fanilies which match the given names attached to surnames which are in the greater family name. ie. Isabel Chavez from Esteban Chavez has Gallegos, Armijo, Jaramillo.etc. in her long family name but none have Lee except those born in California. A marriage with correct date and place in Imperial California, by the Catholic Church Has Albert Miller Lee as Leopoldo Armijo. Ciolina USN-Ret
