Hi Nancy:Interested to see your comment about all the Lees in the family.According to family tradition my ancestors reach to william McBride, b. ca 1758 in Va. prob. married a Lee girl, but we don't have any more data about that.Presumably, he was the son of James McBride who married a Crawford girl (no info except tradition has it that she and Lee were both daughters of prominent army men, natch).the last marriage was against the family's wishes,and they went to Clynch River, in Virginia at the time.william eventurallymoved to Whitehall,Greene Co. Ill, to be with his son James, b. 3 Nov. 1787 and his wife, Nancy Ann Taylor, b. ca 1788.their son,William Isac McBride, m. Nancy Manley, of all this we are certain.Do any of the "historic" McBrides fit with your Lee family?thanks, Dottie
