Trivia Section
editFeel the trivia section of this article should be removed. There is no real added value to noting Lee's possible relationship to David Drier. Lee had many prominent descendants, and it is immaterial to the biography of Lee himself. This same information is contained in the article on Congressman Drier himself. I have copied the trivia section below in case it is decided this section is appropriate.
Lee served on the first Rules Committee empaneled by the House of Representatives. A later chairman of the committee (1999–2007), David Dreier of California, claims to be a distant relative of Lee.[7] --Sonofkenny (talk) 15:57, 12 June 2011 (UTC)
Lowland Beauty
editRemoving reference to Lucy Grymes as the "Lowland Beauty." There is no reliable evidence that confirms this nickname, and the source for identifying her as such apparently started with Parson Weems. Until there is more reliable evidence I believe it is inappropriate to identify her that way. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.120.66.229 (talk) 13:43, 16 June 2011 (UTC)
