I am in quest of a William Lee b. 1741, d 1807 Warren Co. OH. where the Lewis Reno below owes the estate a debt. Family was in Frederick Co. VA, then Greene Co. PA, then OH. sons went to IN (Vigo and Bartholomew Co, then west). John Lee, s of Hancock, owned land just north of my William in Warren Co. OH. My family, as many of yours, claimed relationship to the VA Lees. This excerpt is from a compilation I am writing in an attempt to ascertain who my William was. Thought this would be of interest since you have Lewis Runo Lee. There are Renos from PA/NJ but my concentration is on the VA family and how they tie to the Lees. I have an unidentified Willia, John and Richard in Fauquier Co. VA area and the Richard below may be same. Pat Lewis Renoe account against Lewis Renoe (Lewis Renoe b. France, granted land in Prince William County, VA 1711), d. DEC 1754 had: Thomas Reno b. 1708 who had: William Reno, Lewis Reno, Thomas Reno, Catherine Reno m. John Cargile, Margaret Reno m.
