1/2 There is an article in the Washington Post about me being not related to Robert E. Lee. I have chosen not to engage because I am currently on a regiment of medication that has made it difficult to keep my head up. There are also family dynamics that make this difficult.
2/2 Why the Post is so focused on my heritage and lineage while not focusing on the issues of the statue at hand is beyond me. As they mixed up even the most basic facts, I have removed my name from the lawsuit as not to detract from the community of Statesville that I love.
Choosing not to engage is the wiser course of action, I agree. The better use of time and energy is to care for yourself and your family. Hang in there.
Which basic facts were mixed up?
Lots of luck Cuz! With everything going on!
Hang in there, Rev. Take care of you.
I saw and looked at claims you were not related to R.E. Lee a while ago using public records and a top genealogical database and found you had at least one pair of common great-great...-grandparents with him, Jonathan Jennings and Elizabeth Parker Jennings, from the 17th Century.
I double-checked database today after reading @washingtonpost article and found those connections are no longer present. Perhaps new genealogical research has supplanted old. Anyway, don't be embarrassed, genealogy is an inexact "science" only as good as the records referenced.
I will add you to my prayer list. Keep your head up, Captain.
