Founding Families, The Lee Family of Virginia

We are excited to continue America’s Founding Families, a series of conversations exploring the families that helped create and shape America. Next up is the Lee family of Virginia. From Richard, Francis, and "Light-Horse" Harry Lee and their impact on the American Revolution to their cousin and son Robert E. Lee who served the U.S. Army with distinction for 32 years but fought against it in the Civil War, Tom Hand, @americanacorner, and Owen Lanier, @the.civil.war.files, explore the Lee’s family legacy throughout the generations.
