Patti,
There were evidently 2 "Lee Gangs" in Indian Territory in the Red River Valley a generation apart.I read something claiming these 2 gangs were related.
I am part chickasaw and Seminole. My Great Grandfather was William Deason Lee born 1859. He died the same year my grandfather Bennie Pinkin Lee was born around 1900 in the Hartshorne/Holdenville area in what was then Indian Territory. There are alot of Lees' in that area still.I live in Oklahoma City.
William Deason Lee was killed somehow coming back from Texas to Indian Territory. He was a leader of a part Indian gang called the Lee Gang. He married my great grandmother named Sarah "Monie" Adeline Leslie who was from the same counties.
Did alot of the Lee clan go north to Indian Territory after this feud? There was Tom, Pink and Jim lee. My Grandfathers middle name is Pink? There might be something here.
I think I will have to buy your book :)
Regards,
Victor Kenneth Lee
