When reading your book I came across an entry
for Lucy Page and John Lee.
John Lee Jr. their son, married Elizabeth "Betsy" Page.
I think that Lucy was Lucy Seaton Braxton.
Stephen Lee named two of his children
one John Braxton Lee and one Seaton Lee.
I have never seen it posted as Lucy Page.
You might want to check with Dolores on this, but I
think that John Lee's mother was Lucy Seaton Braxton.

George and ALL, Lucy, the wife of John LEE and father of the John LEE who md. Betty PAGE, was NOT a PAGE. I didn't think that she was and said so in Part #8 of my Treatise. John Brach just informed me that Lucy was Lucy Seaton BRAXTON before her marriage to that John LEE.
