My grandmother is a DAR member. She was big into genealogy but the only name I specifically remember her mentioning relation to was Robert E. Lee by marriage. Obviously the wrong era for DAR.

Should be pretty easy to check it out some.

Here's a link to a Google search on, "Robert E. Lee family tree".

Robert Edward Lee, I (1807 - 1870 was born only a generation or two after the American Revolution.

A couple of things I noticed in your family history in common with some of what I read of my own was the House of Burgesses and the state of Virginia.

Hittin close to home there. What do you mean by my family history? Just a R.E.L connection? PM me if we can talk privately about family histories.

I was given a DAR excellence in history award in elementary school and I've always kinda wondered why....I figure now that grandmother pulled some strings
