Yes I descend though Steven LEE's son William States LEE and his third wife Henrietta C. BARKER. Their only child, Henry Barker LEE was a physician (Graduated from the Charleston Medical School 3.2.1871) and practiced in Summerville until his death in 1926. Henry B. LEE was my Great Grandfather. For most of my info I have depended on "The Descendents of Thomas Lee of Charleston....." by Thomas Carpenter Read pub 1964 except of course for the most recent generations. I would appreciate anyone's comments on the accuracy of this work because it depend on it so much. I have found one inaccuracy in ommission of my Grandfather Francis F. Lee as the son of Henry. I have other documents to back this up so am not too concerned. David Smith-Savannah
