    1. [YOUNGER] Lee/Montague/Younger
    2. I am not sure from the messages posted in the last few days which Lees, Montagues and Youngers you are discussing without some dates of reference. However I can add a bit of trivia regarding Lees and Montagues of Middlesex and Essex Co VA loosely connected to Youngers. Robert Price, Middlesex Co d. 1690. His son, Robert, asked that Thomas Lee be named his guardian. There is no further mention of this younger Robert Price. Secondly, John Price (grandson of the first Robert above) d. 1772 Essex County (husband of Ann Younger) named as one of his executors a John Lee. This John Lee of Smithfield supposedly married Mary Hill whose sister, Catherine married Thomas Price (brother of this John Price). This John Lee (perhaps of Maryland) was nephew of John Lee d. 1767 Essex Co of "Cabin Point, and was father of Hancock and John. This John Lee, the executor died without completing his duties to John Price's estate and a suit between heirs was filed in the 1790s in Cumberland Co VA to try to settle John's estate. The self appointed executor had gone back to Essex Co to try to determine the current status of probate but John Lee's estate had been privately administered without probate and no records were available. The name, Hancock, certainly says this Essex Co family was probably related to the Westmoreland family. As you all are probably aware, John Price d. 1772 Essex Co had only one sister, Jane, who married William Montague. The Montagues had sons named, John, James, Samuel and Peter, maybe others.
