There are at least *fourteen* closely related Y-DNA lines running to this person, whoever he was. He is presumed to have been the same person as the William Lee of Richmond County who married Dorothy Taylor, but although all the lines match each other very closely, none of them match the Stratford Hall Lee line at all. http://leedna.com/dnaresults.php?id=87

Dorothy and her brother Thomas Taylor were the administrators of William Lee’s estate when he died in 1717. (Amelia County Order Book 7) Dorothy then married Richard Croucher of Essex County.

"As the Hanks section of Abraham Lincoln's ancestor table compiled by Gary Boyd Roberts in Ancestors of American Presidents, 2009 edition, 2012 reprint, largely followed my conclusion in the New England Ancestors article, a corrected table, beginning with Nancy (Hanks) Lincoln, #3, is presented here. (As Abraham Lincoln is #1 in his own ahnentafel, his mother is #3, and all numbers follow the normal ahnentafel numbering system.) ...

  • *15. Ann "Nanny" Lee, c. 1742 post 1793, whose father, William Lee, was the son of William and Dorothy (Taylor) Lee, this last a daughter of Elizabeth (_____) Taylor. These Lees were apparently not related to the Lees of Stratford Hall, forebears of Declaration of Independence signers Richard Henry and Francis Lightfoot Lee, of Confederate General Robert E. Lee, and of Elisha Lingan Hall, mentioned above.7
