(Notes from Pamela Cranston)
Margaret Malvina Garrett was the daughter of William Garrett and Margaret Malvina Brown of Middlesex county. (The name of her mother is family tradition. Ronald Currie Lee was not able to verify it. The records may open up a very interesting line. Possibly she was the descendant of Massey Yarrington. Christ Church Reg. has an entry. James Brown married to Judith Yarrington 9/30/l752. The Yarringtons were very early settlers in the county and a Yarrington was on the first vestry board of Christ Church.)
According to marriage bond Middlesex County 2/12/1846 George Critcher of Richmond County married Margaret M. Garrett, widow. Edmund H. Montague and M. He Groom were security. After the marriage they lived in Richmond County. There is also a marriage bond in Middlesex 1/1/1850, Ira E. Parry to Olivia A. Garrett, Margaret M. Critcher and George Critcher guardians. A deed in which Ira Parry and Olivia Critcher his wife sold 350 acres in upper Middlesex to Richard C. Lee, 10/2/1852. A deed in Middlesex Book #21 P. 153 and #27 P. 367 stating that William Garret died intestate and Richard B. Lee is son of Richard Currie Lee and grandson of William Garrett.
Edmund H. Montague is the son of Thomas Montague and brother of Philip Montague who married Frances Lee b. Feb. 14, 1792, sister of Philip Lee who married Nancy Ann Jacobs and had son Richard Currie Lee who married Margaret Malvina Garrett. So Edmund H. Montague was brother in law to Richard Currie Lee's Aunt Frances Lee Montague.
Married by the Rev. Elijah J. Williams, Middlesex Co., VA. (Lee Family Bible). "Mother and Father married in Richmond Co., VA near Farnham, VA." | Garrett, Margaret Malvina (I8642)

(Notes from Pamela Cranston)
Richard Buffon Lee was born with the given first name of Wirt but it was legally changed to Richard by his foster family after he moved to their boarding house in Richmond, VA. He was born near Urbanna, VA probably in the village of what is now Jamaica, Va., north of Saluda. Their home lay between Perrott's Creek and the Dragon Swamp, which is the head waters of the Pyankatank River. It is a somewhat flat, rolling, well wooded and watered country, just south of the Essex Co. border. The Lee plantation was owned by Richard Buffon Lee's father, Col. Richard Currie Lee, until the house burned down in the winter of 1856. During this time Richard C. Lee's wife, Margaret Malvina Garrett Lee died from the effects of exposure. By 1864, the two Lee boys were orphaned, after their father died from battle wounds from serving in the Confederate army.
Family tradition has it that the two boys were placed in foster care in a boarding house in Richmond, VA operated by the "meanest woman in Richmond". Richard was 12 and Jethro was 10 when they were orphaned. Jethro died at the age of 16. Richard grew up in Richmond, VA and tried his hand at various trades, from saleman to owner of a haberdasheryand piano business. A horrible businessman, he failed at nearly everything he tried. He spent most of his wife's money and was known to be a heavy drinker. He was a short, slight man, who in his later years sported a white moustache and wore white cotton suits, like a "Kentucky Colonel." He and his wife and family were brought north around 1900, first to Staten Island, then near his home on Hook Road in Bedford, NY by his oldest son, Ronald Currie Lee, where he died at a hospital in White Plains in 1944.
The inside inscriptions of the Lee Family Bible were as follows:
"Born on the 26th day of July in the county of Augusta and the state of Virginia near Staunton at the residence of William Peyton, Esq., Ronald Currie Lee, the first born son of Richard B. Lee and Mary J. Day in the year 1877.
"Born at our residence 838 West Grace St. in the city of Richmond, Virginia, Mary Day Lee, daughter of Richard B. Lee and Mary J. Day on 21, April 1879.
"Joseph Day Lee born 28, February, 1881 at 838 W. Grace St., Florence born Oct. 9, 1882 at 838 W. Grace St.; Arthur Hampton Lee born 19, May 1885 at 838 West Grace St.; Agnes Garrett Lee born 12, May 1887."
At the bottom of this page in much smaller pen is inscribed:
"Joseph Day Lee married Abby Stout Howell, born March 12, 1884, daughter of Wilson Stout Howell and Emma Barnsdall Atkinson on Oct. 12, 1907."
"Joseph Day Lee II b. Sept. 26, 1908 in New York City, son of Jospeh Day Lee and Abby Howell. Abigail Stout Lee b. May 21, 1910 in New York City; Wilson Howell Lee b. March 16, 1912 in New York City; Richard Henry Lee b. Aug. 21, 1913 in New York City; M. Lee b. Jan. 7, 1918 in New York City; Philip Atkinson Lee b. Oct. 13, 1919 in New York City."
(Not listed is J. B. Lee b. May 30, 1915 in New York City.)
On the second page, it continues:
"Mary Josephine Day and Richard Buffon Lee married in Macon, Georgia on the 2nd day of November, 1876 in the 1st Baptist Church by the Rev. Dr. T.E. Skinner: Mary Josephine Day, eldest daughter of Joseph Day of Tranquilla, Georgia and Mary A. Hampton, daughter of Dr. J. J. Hampton of Richmond District, SC to Richard Buffon Lee, eldest son of Richard Currie Lee and Margaret Malvina Garrett, both of Middlesex Co., VA."
"Agnes Garret Lee, born 1887, died in 1890 at the Exchange Hotel, Richmond, Virginia while our home (838 West Grace St.,) was being remodeled - our first sorrow."
The Richmond Directory of 1889-1890 has Richard B. Lee working at Ryland & Lee Co., and living at: 838 W.Grace St., Richmond, VA. | Lee, Richard (Wirt) Buffon (I8645)

There is a book on Old Homes of Middlesex County Virginia. It mentions a house called "Woodville." According to Mike Marshall of Essex Co., VA. "This house was in the Churchill Blakey family until 1816 when it was sold to Philemon Woodward. In 1853, Woodward sold it to William S. Ware who sold it in 1855 to OBEDIAH W. LEE. After that, the house became known as "Lee's" At Lee's death, Woodville was divided among his heirs, and his widow received as her dower 144 acres including the house and
outbuildings. After her death in 1905, the property was sold to George Northam. The house has since burned. It was close to the Dragon swamp, but can't figure out just where it was." | Lee, Obediah (I8759)
