Pat, Read the following Younger-L messages that MBmackie [email protected] sent on Monday, Oct. 30, Monday,8:57, Richard Lee of Ditchley, also on Mon. 1:52 PM, House of Montigue,(a long article on Peter Montigue but on page 26, there is a John Lee who is a witness to the will of Thomas Montigue's wife, Penelope and there is another reference to John Lee. It will let you search. My gggg grandmother was Mary Agatha Dearing and her husband was Capt. John W. Younger, cousin to Joshua Younger, g grandfather of the Younger "gang". In my family outline which Judy Hofstetter sent(and got info. From others) there is the mention of a marriage of Catherine Montigue to a John Lee. The date of his birth is listed on the research as July 5, 1719 in Middlesex Co., Va. That was supposedly Catherine's first husband, second being George Twyman I and third being John Warwick. But in the article on Peter Montique and descendants there is no marriage listed with Catherine Montigue and John Lee. Now I'm trying to figure out what Younger family the Ann Younger m. Richard Price was from? Now Mary Hill sounds familiar as Mary Hill Carter, married Harry "Lighthorse" Lee, and had Robert E. Lee. Do you know if Mary Hill and Mary Hill Carter were related? Do you know which William Montigue married Jane Price? One William Montigue m. 2nd. Judy Lee Smith, daughter of Richard Lee. But I haven't figured that out either. I'm not sure if your aware of this or not, so let me tell you. It might clear the air a little for you. Capt. John W. Younger, had a sister, Mary Younger Ragan and her son, Jacob, married a Mary Hill Carter, she was the niece of the Mary Hill Carter who married 2nd. Harry"Lighthorse" Lee and she had Robert E. Lee. Now Cole Younger always said that his grandfather Joshua was married to a daughter(I believe) of Lighthorse Lee and called her "Lizzie Lee" or something to that effect. I was telling Wilma that I knew of Lee's on Mary Agatha Dearing line, which is the Montigues, Bufords, Twymans, Dearings. I'd appreciate any help! -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of [email protected] Sent: Thursday, November 02, 2006 9:16 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [YOUNGER] Lee/Montague/Younger 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.
