Unlike President Abraham Lincoln, who led the North in the Civil War, Lee was not a self-made man. Lee's family was a leading family of Virginia. The Lees were one of the most distinguished families in the United States. A kinsman, Thomas Lee, had served as royal governor of the colony. Lee was also related to Francis Lightfoot Lee and Richard Henry Lee. Both had been statesmen and soldiers during the American Revolution (1775-1783). His father, Henry Lee, was known as "Light-Horse Harry." Light- Horse Harry Lee had been a brilliant cavalry commander in the Revolutionary War. The Lee mansion, Matholic, burned in the early 1700's. Queen Caroline of England gave Thomas Lee money to help rebuild it. Lee called the new building Stratford Hall.
