The Lee of Virginia Family Crest
This well-known Virginia family claims to descend, by clear pedigree, from the Lees of Langley and Colon, county Salop. Richard Lee, High Sheriff of county Salop in 1479, is the common ancestor of these English and Virginia Lees. The Baronetcy of Lee of Langley is extinct (1660). We have in our possession various bookplates having belonged to various members of that family. They all reproduce the devices we give. The colors of the English family are different. We give both in our Index.
