Talk:Henry Lee II

Lucy Grymes
Removing reference to her as the "Lowland Beauty." There is no reliable evidence to show she is the women referred to by this name. Her name was apparently cited as the Lowland Beauty by Parson Weems...not a reliable source. The source noted in the article as it stands no longer exists and in fact redirects to a page selling Viagra. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Sonofkenny (talk • contribs) 13:53, 16 June 2011 (UTC)

, nicknamed "The Lowland Beauty". According to local tradition, she was one of the Virginia beauties adored by Gen. George Washington (1732-1799) in his early youth. To her legend also ascribes his schoolboy verses, and many have surmised that when in after years Washington so favored her son "Harry", it was because of his tender memories of the boy's mother. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Sonofkenny (talk • contribs) 13:57, 16 June 2011 (UTC)

Genealogical Information
Removing the excessive genealogical information on Henry Lee II. Literally millions of people are descended from the people noted. It is not unique to Henry Lee II, nor is it particularly relevant to his biography. There is no evidence that Lee was in any way influenced by his descent from these people. In addition, the citations noted no longer appear to be valid.

Copying text below in case it is decided this is relevant and can be verified

whose mother was a great-aunt of President Thomas Jefferson and descended once from King John of England, twice from King Edward I of England, once from King Jean de Brienne of Jerusalem, twice from King Edward III of England and once from King Pedro I of Castile [1] [2]. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Sonofkenny (talk • contribs) 14:31, 16 June 2011 (UTC)

Lee Hall
Removed links for "Lee Hall" due to corresponding link not having an article referring to the (correct) Lee Hall in Westmoreland County, Virginia. The Lee Hall in Newport News (formerly Warwick County), Virginia and its corresponding mansion should not be confused with this Lee Hall, near the town of Hague.24.245.108.228 (talk) 05:25, 27 September 2011 (UTC)
