I have not confirmed all these facts as yet but many/most are right.Hi I am Leslie Lee I am Great Great Grandson of Thomas & Mary, My Great Grandfather Thomas Jr who moved to Kempsey NSW from Goulburn NSW whose son James Kennedy Lee b 21.8.1887 is my Grandfather, my father is Richard Edward. I have some limited photos which includes a poor photo copy of a painting or photo of Thomas Lee, someone must have the original and information regarding many of T & M children, The family bible with mostof this info was in the hands of my Grandfathers brothers GGDaughter who has passed away before I got to view it,hope her children may have it. I have focused a bit on my line but picked up others along the way. I had started a family tree on Genealogy Aus but subscription finished. If you have any info or relics such as photos feel free to contact me. leslee01@outlook.com, I gained a lot of info from St Clare House in Goulburn. I have photos of resting place of Thomas, Mary & some children as well as the house they built known as Leeville. The library has micro-fish etc. I will add more later.
